From the organizer

We are excited to be back for our 12th race! Our 5K runs are mission and family focused.  We can't wait to see familiar faces, along with many new faces on April 4, 2026. We are back with the start line in the Village of Cartersville. Proceeds from this year's race will benefit missions of Cartersville Baptist Church--our youth group and missionaries.

This year not only will we have our traditional 5K race through our beautiful quaint village of Cartersville, but we will feature a kids fun run!! The Kids Run is for 10 years old and younger. Participants in this age group can register to do both the kids mile run and 5K, but must register for both to place in either race.
