Mountains-to-Sea Trail 12-Mile Challenge
April 10, 2010 @ 8:00am – Registration now open!
1st annual Mountains-to-Sea Trail 12-Mile Challenge at Falls Lack presented by Bull City Running and Friends of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail.
The race will follow the beautiful Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) as it winds through the woods along the Falls Lake. The MST, part of the NC State Park system, stretches 1000-miles across North Carolina from Clingmans Dome in the Great Smokies to Jockey’s Ridge State Park on the Outer Banks. More than 500 miles of the official trail are now complete, and with temporary connectors on back roads people can now hike across the state. The 12-mile trail race will finish on the dam at the site of the festival where runners will be cheered on by spectators and can enjoy the festivities.
Race proceeds will benefit the Friends of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail who, with the help of dedicated volunteers, build and maintain the MST trail throughout the state as well as advocate and educate the importance of maintaining and securing our natural resources.
>> Also note, there is a Falls Lake Workday – Sun, April 11
