Overview

“Perennial” is a time based (3 Hour, 6 Hour, or 10 Hour) running event and is the perfect opportunity to hit your distance or duration PR with minimal elevation on a lap based course. Each 5Kish loop, along beautiful waterfront trails on the grounds of Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden, will add up to reach your goal and snag escalating distance prizes.

Test yourself physically and mentally, while collecting prizes and supporting small business and local environmental non-profits just minutes from Charlotte, NC … not a bad way to spend a day running through the woods with your trail family!
