2nd Annual Marine 5K Mud Run

Saturday, June 11th at Jomeokee Park in Pinnacle, NC

If you missed out on the first event, you're missing out on the dirtiest fun you'll ever have with a 5K race! It's a pretty muddy affair! Many folks ask how tough is the course? It can be as hard or as easy as you want it to be. There are semi-professional runners down to your neighbor next door.

One thing is for sure. When you run this race, the Marines will make sure you finish it. Part of the Marines Creed is to never leave another Marine behind. And for this event, no runners will be left behind!
Race times:


5k Individual Race - 8:00 am


Pollywog Jog - 9:30 am


5k Team Race - 10:15 am

Runners will be required to be at the race site no later than one and a half hours prior to your race. The races will run on time with or without you. You should give yourself adequate time to park, pick up your race packet, and put your running bib number on.
