Brief Description:
Come join us in an exciting morning of fun and fitness. Follow the Easter bunny as you run the half marathon or 5k. An Easter bunny on a bicycle will lead you on a scenic course through Clemson and the surrounding area. If you find an Easter egg along the way, be sure to pick it up for a surprise at the finish. An Easter egg hunt will also take place on the intramural fields for all who wish to participate.
This year each age bracket will be assigned a specific color egg to search for. This will ensure fairness and fun for all! Also expect new, fun, and exciting prizes! All half marathon finishers will receive a medal for their efforts and participation.
