Davidson, NC The Davidson Run For Green is back for its 16th year on October 2, 2021 supporting Davidson Lands Conservancy.

Come experience the Run For Green races!  Our course is in the beautiful small town of Davidson, North Carolina.  Be careful, though, it is so charming, you may just want to move!  This year we are back in person for our 16th Annual Running Event.  We could not be more excited to bring you the quality race that you have come to expect. Our course winds it’s way through lovely little neighborhoods with long stretches out in the woods on the greenway where you can take in the serenity of nature.  Expect to encounter a hill or two, this is not what we would call a flat course. But, we will do our best to keep you motivated the whole way as you enjoy your run and the spirit of competition!

But, we will do our best to keep you motivated the whole way as you enjoy your run and the spirit of competition! 

For our virtual events, we are offering two options, RUN ANYWHERE with RaceJoy – This means you can run on your own anywhere to complete one of three distance choices.  You can run a 5k, a 10k, or a half marathon.  Or you can run the events without RaceJoy.  The beauty is that you can support the Davidson Lands Conservancy in their efforts to protect, explore, and support natural environments while running anywhere you want. 

After you finish your run, you will easily be able to upload your results through RaceJoy or you can still do it the old fashioned way and send them to whitney@queencitytiming.com if you don’t want to use RaceJoy.
