READY. SET. CELEBRATE 🎉

It’s time to say goodbye to ’23 – but not before one last 5K! Join us for the inaugural Charlotte NOON Year’s Eve 5K at McAlpine Creek Park. This is your chance to compete on the spectacular Larry McAfee Cross Country trail at McAlpine – a certified 5K race course!

Competition not your thing? That’s ok too! All are welcome. Runners, walkers, families. You name it. This is an inclusive event that is sure to be the next great holiday 5K run or walk in Charlotte!

RUN THE LAST MILE.

We know the feeling. You want to squeeze in a few more miles before the big New Year’s celebration.

In addition to receiving an official time for the 5K, all participants will be timed for the LAST MILE. Before the ball drops, do you have what it takes to finish your last mile of 2023 in style? The top male and female finishers in the last mile will receive a cool commemorative prize!

GREAT RACE. GREAT SWAG.

Part of the joy in running or walking a 5K is the awesome swag, right? We’ve got you covered. Each participant will receive a finisher medal and a comfy long sleeve race tshirt.
