Different from past years, the 2015 Trail Run will include competitive races and a Fun Run. The competitive race starts at 9:00am with the Fun Run starting at 9:30am. All runners will start and finish at Stone Hall. Last year’s event included 50 participants, with some traveling from Danville and Greensboro. All trail run participants will also have free admission to the Lady Patriots volleyball game against Vance Granville in Stone Hall, following the race at noon.

Registration fees are $45 for the competitive races, $35 for the Fun Run group and $20 for all area students and teachers with a valid ID. To pre-register, you can call race director J.R.
