The Falcon Derby- Running With The Horses!!

Get ready to enjoy a running experience unlike any you've ever had before this cross country season! When you join us for this inaugural race to RUN WITH THE HORSES, you'll experience breathtaking beauty on one of the best kept secrets in the Southeast, known as the Bluewater Creek Polo Club! In addition to the beauty of the course, get ready for some new 5k PRs as our course is FLAT and FAST! It will be a combination of about 85% flat grass and 15% hard packed sand horse track! And, while you're at it, you'll absolutely love running along the bank of Bluewater Creek for a portion of the course! We're looking forward to each of your teams coming and enjoying everything we have to offer!
