Zelda 4 Hour

Welcome back to Midland, North Carolina, for the 7th Annual Zelda 4-Hour Trail Race on May 1, 2027. This scenic trail race takes place at Rob Wallace Park and offers runners of all abilities a chance to explore nearly four miles of varied terrain around the park's quarry lake and main trails.
Participants can choose their own pace over the course of four hours, aiming for as many laps or just enjoying one loop before finishing strong with an official collar-and-dog-tag finisher medal. The race features a single aid station at the start/finish line where runners will find hydration options, snacks, and hot food like hamburgers and hot dogs to keep them fueled.
The Greater Charlotte SPCA will have adoptable pets on site for those interested in meeting some furry friends looking for their forever homes. Donations made directly to GCSPCA during registration also earn discounts toward future OMR Ultra events.
Parking instructions are clearly marked upon entry into Rob Wallace Park, and packet pickup is available early at Pour 64 or race day starting one hour before the event begins. Race volunteers play a vital role in making Zelda possible, with perks including free T-shirts and discounted entries for their dedicated service throughout the day.
Join us on May 1st to challenge yourself amidst stunning scenery while supporting an important cause.
