    I ran this again in 2014. Got a disappointing time again. Oh well. The charity was a great cause, and the production was great, with a block party feel in the parking lot of North Meck High School. IIRC, you start on Alexandriana Road and cross the I-77 bridge almost immediately, then run on Mt. Holly-Huntersville to Old Statesville, and finish up on Hambright Road by sneaking in the back entrance of NMHS.

    This race starts and ends at North Meck High School. Not as pretty as some 5ks in Davidson or Cornelius. Since it ran mostly on 45 mph roads around the outskirts of Huntersville, I did terribly the two years I ran it (I liked park runs more back then). But it was definitely for a good cause, commemorating all the local high schoolers who have lost their lives since 1997. The production and DJing was great, but the course was meh.
