Details:
We are celebrating our 19th year of the Charity Chase Half Marathon!!!!
The Charity Chase Half Marathon is a rewarding run for those up for the challenge. Hickory is in the foothills of North Carolina and the race course winds around the city with elevation changes that will require some effort. You will have run up and down the equivalent of a sixty-story building before you finish but don't be scared off! We have participants that run/walk and runners as young as seven and as old as seventy.
The Charity Chase 5k will take participants through the downtown area of Hickory.
Charity Chase Half Marathon will start at 7:30 AM.
Charity Chase 5K will start at 7:00 AM.
Our Charity volunteer groups help make Charity Chase Half Marathon run smoothly. There will be over 300 volunteers at the start/finish and along the race course to cheer you on, provide water, Gatorade & GU. They may even entertain you along the way! Hickory's Police Department will be at every controlled intersection and our EMS will be on standby along the course for your safety.
Packet Pick Up will be Friday, April 11th from 12pm-6pm at the Hickory Metro Convention Center
Race Day Packet Pick Up is available at race venue between 5:30 am - 6:45 am.
Everything we do at Charity Chase Half Marathon is geared to giving our RUNNERS a rewarding race where, hopefully, new PERSONAL BESTS and GREAT EXPERIENCES will be found. We look forward to seeing you there!
