Description

We're headed to Sugar Hill to celebrate what will always be remembered as the three greatest decades of music...the 60's, the 70's, and the 80's.  It won't matter if you love Sugar Sugar, No Sugar Tonight, or Pour Some Sugar on Me; you'll have a great time running & singing your way through the decades in Sugar Hill.

There are three courses; one to celebrate each of those years.  6K for the 60's, 7K for the 70's, and 8K for the 80's; or you can race all the years and finish up with a half marathon under your belt.

We've lined up some great race swag...Super race shirts and custom key chains.  Add in age group awards for each race (including the half) in 5 year age groups, and you have the perfect event.
