Embark on a delightful 5K journey at the Little Sugar Creek Greenway parkrun, taking place on October 31, 2026, in scenic Charlotte, NC. This free, weekly, volunteer-led event offers a "super flat" out-and-back course entirely on paved paths, making it an excellent opportunity for a personal best. As you run, jog, or walk, you'll be treated to picturesque scenery along the Little Sugar Creek, with tall trees providing ample shade and glimpses of local wildlife such as deer, hawks, and herons. The route guides you past charming artwork and through urban green spaces, creating an engaging and accessible experience for all abilities.

The Little Sugar Creek Greenway parkrun is renowned for its friendly, community-focused atmosphere, making it a popular choice for locals looking to get active and socialize. The course begins and ends near the Sharon Road West access point, where you'll find convenient parking, restrooms, and a water fountain. Typical race day conditions in late October boast pleasant highs around 68°F and lows around 43°F, with only a 12% chance of precipitation, providing ideal weather for a comfortable effort. After crossing the finish line, join fellow participants for a cherished parkrun tradition: a post-event coffee at a local cafe, fostering connections and camaraderie that extend beyond the run itself.
