Event Description

The people of Cross County offer runners and walkers a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of corporate America. Rediscover what you love about running and enjoy a slice of rural American country running and take in the vibrant fall colors of Crowley's Ridge at the same time.

Our races are out and back races that wind through part of the historic district and continue out along the ridge through fields ripe for harvest. We will have aid stations approximately every mile, and port-o-potties are also located near each station! Each aid station will be supplied with Vaseline, Gatorade Endurance, fruit, salt, pickles, snacks, and smiles. We serve a championship BBQ plate supper for all finishers and their families. Come run in the country and let us show you some small-town southern hospitality.

In lieu of a pasta dinner, we will work with locally owned restaurants to create pasta specials for the marathon weekend. More information to come.
