Bmw Performance Classic 2-Mile Run / Walk -

This is a Greenville Track Club Corporate Shield event.

For the 2025 race, we will increase the capacity to 450 participants with the expected continued support of participant carpooling. This allows us to do parking on-site and meet other capacity constraints. We will not have Hot Laps this year.

As the event occurs in an area restricted to the public, ALL spectators regardless of age are required to register ('SPECTATOR') with waiver at no charge. 

We are offering a BMW Performance Classic Running Phone Pouch for OPTIONAL purchase. Vintage shirts available for purchase ($10 cash) during race day packet pickup while supplies last. 

We have a minimum participant age requirement of 5 years old, in line with RRCA guidelines that children under this age group should only participate in "dash" events. All registered participants should be able to finish the race on their own (not in a stroller, or carried by an adult). Strollers are permitted, however should line up in the back of the field.  Dogs are not permitted. 

Important Dates:

August 18th - Registration Opens.  Past races have reached capacity quickly.

August 31st - Early registration deadline (Price increase from $15 to $20)

September 18th - Pre-Race Packet Pickup 5:00-7:00 PM at Fleet Feet, 635 Augusta St, Greenville. Please do not park at the church across the street! 

September 19th - Race Day. Packet Pickup 5:00-6:00 PM. Race Start is at 6:15 PM. 

Parking:

With capacity capped at 450 participants we will allow all participants to park at the Performance Center, but it is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO CARPOOL AND ARRIVE EARLY. If we run out of spaces we will send late-comers to the overflow lot across Highway 101 and send a shuttle to pick them up, but this could cause you to miss the race start. Please do not park across Highway 101 unless you are directed to go there as there will be no shuttle otherwise.

All carpool participants will receive a special door prize drawing ticket.

Refer to the Parking Guide (downloadable pdf) below.
