Cannonball Running Festival is the LARGEST celebration of running in our region!
Race distances include Full Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, Kids Dash AND a bonus challenge option. The backdrop for the races is the gorgeous A & Y greenway in Greensboro, NC and Country Park. The start/finish for all events take place in Country Park, Greensboro's running Mecca.
What is that challenge? The Double Barrel Challenge!
The Friday night 5K allows the unique opportunity to race in the evening AND opens up the challenge of participating in either the 10K, half marathon or marathon on Saturday.
In true celebration of the region, local craft breweries pour all day Saturday for participants and spectators. Participants have two craft brews included with their race registration and spectators are able to purchase with all funds generated from beer sales going directly to our charity partner, Brenner Children's Hospital.
Countdown to Cannonball Running Festival!

Back With Both Barrels Loaded!
This historic event features FOUR distances including the marathon, half marathon, 10K, 5K + a bonus challenge option.
Whether a veteran to distance running or a relative newbie, this event is a MUST DO for the course, the schwag, the community, the glory, and the PARTY!
What's included with my registration?
- All race participants will receive a custom finishers medal (Kids dash will not receive a medal or shirt, but their own "goodies'),
- Runner shirt (you must register 2 weeks prior to event to guarantee a shirt.)
- Snacks, beer (21 and up), and a meal!
- Double Barrel Challenge participants receive two shirts and two custom finisher medals (one for each event), PLUS bonus bling for completing the Double Barrel Challenge. Not to mention extra beer and bragging rights!!!
