Packet
pick-up will be the Friday prior to the race at the
TrakShak in Homewood at 11am-5pm or at Ross Bridge on
race day at 7:00 am.
The Ross Bridge 8K is a race experience like no other!
Their aim is to create a family friendly atmosphere,
while at the same time conduct a competitive 8K run.
Various entertainment, vendor booths, and a health
exposition sponsored by St. Vincent's Health System
will be featured near the start/finish line and
delicious snacks will be available as part of your
race registration. Medals will be given away for the
top 3 finishers in each age category, plus grand
prizes for the top male and female.
The professionally measured course includes a scenic
route starting in the Ross Bridge Village Center,
carefully patterned after historic resort style living
of early America, crossing through the six distinctive
neighborhoods of the classic American resort town. The
route also takes advantage of just some of the five
miles of activity trails that criss cross a slice of
Civil War era history, with a grand finish at the
vintage train station and welcome center!
Proceeds from the events will benefit Alabama Teen
Challenge. For more than 50 years Teen Challenge
has been providing quality residential, low cost drug
and alcohol recovery programs for individuals of all
ages. Although many have benefited from their
association with the Teen Challenge program, this run
is not about those from its 50 year past - It is about
the 19 million Americans who need help with their
addiction today. For more information about the
