About the Event

Even though the race falls on Valentine’s Day, we’re leaning fully into Mardi Gras vibes — because honestly, that’s how events all started at our Tasting Room.     
Mardi Gras was the theme of our very first event, and we can’t wait to bring it back as part of our 5th year Mardi Gras celebration.
Runners will cross the finish line straight into a Southern-style brunch with an a-la-carte menu from Chef Gunny, complete with their own Mardi Gras themed mimosa to toast a job well done.
After the race festivities, the celebration continues pivoting to full on Cajun cuisine in the afternoon and festive live music by Shoulder 2 Shoulder from 2–5 PM.
Keep your hearts and flowers, because we’re bringing more beads, bubbles, and let the good times roll!
More Race Info:
Lots of great perks: Chip Timing, Awesome Race Shirt, Finisher Award Medal, Age Group Awards, and best of all; a mimosa to enjoy while you kick up your feet on the deck after the race!
We'll have juice and water for those under 21.

About State Road

Learn more about the host city, State Road.

State Road is an unincorporated community located in the Bryan Township of Surry County, North Carolina and part of Edwards Township in eastern Wilkes County, North Carolina, United States. As of the 2020 census, the State Road postal district (28676) had a total population of 6,022. The community's unique name is derived from its location on U.S. Route 21. Legend has it that when US 21 was first being built, locals constructed a horseshoe pit on the graded road surface. On Sunday afternoons when they got together to pitch horseshoes, they would say "let's go to state road" and the name stuck.
