About the event

Participants will start their journey along bustling city avenues lined with festive decorations before branching into quieter historic neighborhoods filled with charm and character. For those opting for the longer distance, the course includes an additional loop around Grove Park’s serene landscapes, adding to the scenic beauty of this invigorating run.
The race culminates in a unique finish line on North Market Street, Asheville's last cobblestone block, providing runners with a memorable setting as they cross into 2027. Whether you're aiming for personal best times or simply embracing the spirit of renewal and community, this event offers an inspiring start to your fitness goals.
Families are welcome to join in on the festivities, walking or running alongside seasoned athletes. Be sure to dress warmly and prepare for a day filled with motivation and camaraderie as you set intentions for the year ahead. The race promises not only physical challenge but also a sense of community and shared purpose.
Note: Please be aware that permit approval from local authorities is pending, and any changes to the date or course will be communicated in due time.
Join us this New Year's Day and make your 2027 resolution one step closer to being realized with every stride.
