About this race
Run for the Pils 5k
Join Southern Strain Run Club as we kick off Southern Strain Breweries' anniversary weekend with our annual 5k! Our out-and-back course starts at the brewery and then heads to McEachern Greenway, a portion of the 4-mile greenway loop in Concord. This course is paved and be forewarned - HILLY! There is an aid station midway with water and Gatorade you will pass twice. Once you’ve crossed the finish line, enjoy our refreshing race day beer, Run for the Pils!
A portion of the race proceeds will benefit Run Cabarrus, a competitive youth cross-country club dedicated to developing distance runners.

We will walk as a group to the bottom of the hill and race back to the top. The first men's and women's finishers will get a unique prize!
What to expect
Written from race dataThe Run For The Pils 5K, scheduled for September 7, 2024, in Concord, NC (28025), is a community-focused 5K run/walk event. While specific details regarding its historical origins or previous iterations are not provided, its designation as a 5K run/walk suggests it's a relatively accessible event suitable for runners and walkers of all experience levels. Participants can anticipate a standard 5-kilometer course designed to encourage participation and community engagement in the Concord area. Given the location in Concord, NC, runners can generally expect a mix of road running and potentially some park or trail sections, depending on the precise course layout. The terrain is likely to be largely paved or packed gravel, with some rolling hills being a common feature in this region. Weather in early September in North Carolina can be warm and humid, so participants should prepare for potentially challenging conditions and stay hydrated. The "Run For The Pils" title hints at a fun, perhaps casual, atmosphere with a potential emphasis on local breweries or a celebratory post-race gathering, though this is speculative.
