We are excited to announce a new fall trail run happening at the Horry County Bike and Run Park. The Apex Trail Classic will be a 5K (run or walk) and a half marathon (run only) event. For this event we will have a competitive heat and a non competitive heat for the 5K so that we allow the faster people to get out on the trail earlier. Registration for this event will be capped at 300 runners and we fully expect for the race to sell out prior to race day as this is a very popular trial and the most unique running experience in all of Horry County.
The trails at the Horry County Bike and Run Park are beginner friendly at slower paces or walking but also provide a unique challenge with true single track trails, short punchy elevation changes and an overall fun trail experience. All participants will receive a Apex Trail Classic hat, an Apex Promoz buff/head wrap as well as a custom finisher’s medal.
