Half Marathon and 5K
October 2nd

Each year on Saturday morning during our Fall Festival, Clark Gardens hosts a half marathon and 5K run/walk. The run starts and finishes in Clark Gardens. The race is on paved paths winding through beautiful tree lined paths both in Clark Gardens and on the Rails to Trails. 

The runners enjoy beautiful country roads, rolling hills and a trip through the Vietnam War Museum.· A favorite among runners is the aid station at the Garner Store and Cafe.· The award ceremony features breakfast burritos and music by the Weatherford based band, Elixir.

This year the runs are scheduled for Saturday, October 2, 2010.
Online registration is now available.
