HPAC Summer Miles Series #1

Why run a marathon when you can run the Mile? Running the Mile is as American as apple pie. When was the last time you ran a mile? High School? Elementary School? Come take down that lifetime mile PR with us this summer for a series of 1 mile races at the Aderholt Track at the High Point Athletic Complex. 3 timed heats so you can race runners at your own skill level. Plus a community & corporate 4x400m relay to cap off the night of exciting races!

Proceeds from the Series will benefit the GO FAR High Point program.
