The Carolinas HealthCare System Big Game Run presented by SPORTPORT and benefiting RunningWorks, will take place on Super Bowl Sunday February 4, 2018. The event will feature a 4 mile run and also a 100 yard kids dash. The course will start and finish outside the Panther Stadium on the corner of Mint St. and Stonewall St.
Participants will be encouraged to dress up and support their favorite football team and there will be a costume contest. When you register, you will also be able to choose the team you are supporting and receive a custom bib with your teams’ colors.
The entire event will be football themed. There are 4 downs in football and 4 miles on the course. Down markers will replace mile markers, course officials will be dressed as referees, the finish line will be the end zone, fans will get our version of the “Terrible Towel”, kid’s will get mini footballs, etc.
And the most important part…the tailgating afterwards to help kick start your pre-game and celebrate the biggest day in sports.
