Welcome
Welcome to the 7th Annual Run the Ridge: Hearts and Heroes Edition – a unique event that combines two beloved community traditions, Run the Ridge and Trails for Troops! Fayette County's premier trail run now merges the thrill of adventure with the spirit of giving, bringing together runners, walkers, and ruckers to support the Southern Conservation Trust and honor our veterans.
This year’s event offers something for everyone: the classic 5K, the newly added 10K challenge, and in celebration of the season, the 5K & 10K Love Run for teams of two. Whether you're here to push your limits or simply enjoy a scenic day on the trail, you’ll find yourself immersed in the natural beauty of The Ridge Nature Area. Enjoy elevation changes and breathtaking views as you make your way through trails where Eastern box turtles, white-tailed deer, and songbirds roam freely.
Join us early to take advantage of Early Bird pricing from November 15 to December 31 and register by January 19, 2025, to secure your event t-shirt. Packet pickup is available on Thursday, February 13 in Fayetteville, GA, and late registration opens on February 10.
Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind opportunity to race, reconnect with nature, and honor our heroes. Grab your loved ones, lace up, and make unforgettable memories at this year’s Hearts and Heroes Edition!
Event's current local time: 4:58 AM ET
