We're offering three different options for packet pickup this year.
--- You can grab your goody bag and everything you need to start the race at any of these packet pickup sessions. ---
FRIDAY
Pre-event PPU (Friday, April 21) at Highland Brewing (12 Old Charlotte Hwy., Asheville) -
Friday 4 PM - 7 PM at Highland Brewing Annex near the main doors
Highland Brewing is the perfect place to carb-load before the race and pick up your packet and race bib at the same time! Packet pick up will be located in the Annex.
SATURDAY
Pre-event PPU (Saturday, April 22) at the WNC Nature Center (75 Gashes Creek Rd., Asheville) -
Saturday 12 PM - 4 PM at the upper level turnaround of the Education Center (follow signs; note this is NOT the Front Entrance)
Swing by the WNC Nature Center and scope out your route while picking up your packet and race bib! Packet pick up will be located outside the WNC Nature Center in the Education Center's upper level turnaround, where summer camp drop-offs typically occur.
SUNDAY (RACE DAY)
Race-day PPU (Sunday, April 24) -
6:45 AM - 7:15 AM for 5k participants
6:45 AM - 7:45 AM for Nature Walk participants
You may also pick up your packet and race bib before your race start time on Sunday, April 23. Be sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before your race wave start time to ensure you have time to return your packet to your car! This packet pickup session will take place at the front gate of the WNC Nature Center (right by the start line).
