Event Description

Join us in March for the Crusader 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run!  This fun event will be held at Crossroads Baptist School on Saturday, March 25.  The 5K (3.1 miles) will start at 7:30 AM and will wind through the tree lined streets of the neighborhoods next to the school.  Participants in the 5K event should be able to finish in less than one hour.  Finishers in the 5K should also plan to stay after the race for the 5K awards.  The top Male & Female runners will receive awards as well as the top Male and Female in the Masters division (40 and above).  After the top finishers are recognized, we will give out awards in 10-year age groups. 

After the 5K race, we will have the Crusader 1 Mile Fun Run!  This race is approximately 1/2 mile out and then back to Crossroads Baptist Church parking lot. Finishers will receive a finisher ribbon.  

We hope that you can join us as we use this event to raise money for Crossroads Baptist School.  We are excited to announce that we are adding 6th grade to CBS in the fall of 2023 then 7th in 2024 then 8th in 2025!  This fundraising event will help us fund the new grade and propel us forward to build additional grades each year.  

Register BEFORE March to get a discounted race fee, a Crusader t-shirt, and a goody bag!  Register by March 11 to be guaranteed a shirt on race day.  Those who register after March 11 are not guaranteed a shirt on race day.  Registration for the 1 Mile Fun Run closes on March 11.  Plan to register early to get the most benefits!

We are also offering a Virtual race option for those who just want a shirt and/or want to participate in the race but live too far from the Valdosta area to be here in person!  Please note, participants in the virtual race will not be included in the local results.  Virtual participants will have the option of picking up a shirt from the school or having it sent to them via USPS.
