5k & 10k Race Finish Line

Reindeer Fun Run

7th Annual Reindeer Fun Run
Saturday, December 7, 2013

     

An event for all of North Carolina. The area's most popular running event keeps getting bigger, and keeps getting better! The 5k curves through the historic downtown neighborhoods of Aberdeen, NC with rolling hills and wide turns. The 12ks of Christmas incorporates the 5k route along with a scenic tour of Bethesda, and the Malcolm Blue Farm. Both courses finish on a sloping downhill toward downtown Aberdeen and historic Union Station.

This FUN community event is for everyone from serious runners to recreational walkers, families, and pets. Join in the holiday cheer with a run or walk and the Reindeer Fun Run After Party featuring a Kids Zone.

Sandhills Race Series - Shout Out!

Sandhills Race Series
We are thrilled that the Sandhills Race Series, born at a Reindeer Fun Run meeting in 2010, has grown to be such a success.  This year 14 races (maybe more) will be a part of  the Spring & Fall series, and we are looking to expand into an Adventure Series too!  This is just a “SHOUT OUT” to all of those who help to make the SRS so much fun to be a part of!  Without their hard work, dedication to their events and the causes the serve, and a desire to help each other, the SRS wouldn’t be

2013 Reindeer Fun Run Logo?

We know it is early, but believe it or not May is when we usually start sharing the Reindeer Fun Run on event calendars, creating forms, and getting the website updated.  And May is just around the corner.  But in order to do that, we have to have our logo figured out.  We have changed the logo each year, and we want to continue that tradition. We’d love to know what you think we should do to this year’s logo!

Here is a look back…

Woodlake Triathlon Terminated

One of the great local athletic events, the Woodlake Triathlon, is at an end.  It is sad to see an event that did so much to promote a community has been ended because of that very same community.  We received this notification yesterday…

Important Race Info Q&A

It is almost here!  We wanted to pass along some information that we get asked about a lot…

Packet Pick-up
Packet pick-up starts Friday at noon.  Your best bet is to let the first rush get through and come between 1:00 and 8:00 (please don’t come early, we won’t be ready).  This year we have moved packet pick-up to Page Memorial Fellowship Hall which is right at the starting line on 104 South Poplar Street.  We will also be collecting Cans & Coats for K2 Solutions Annual Drive at packet-pickup.  Please bring what you can.
