The Easter Bunny Trail Hop 5K offers trail runners a unique twist on the traditional trail run experience.
Participants will run 5 kilometers on a rolling course that winds its way through the beautiful Lake Conestee Nature Park on a mix of dirt, gravel and pavement. Along the course, runners will find Easter Eggs stuffed with prizes and goodies. It’s an Easter Egg Hunt and a Trail Run all in one. If you’re lucky (and fast enough) you might even catch the Easter Bunny hiding some of the eggs…if you’re lucky.
We will also have a special Easter Egg Hunt for the children ages 8 and under after the finish. Conestee features a large playground and smooth walking path for those with little kids, so bring the whole family for some fun.
Greenville County Rec has been working hard to make Conestee one of the best facilities in the county, and this is a great opportunity to see all the fantastic improvements that have been made to this wonderful outdoor oasis. A portion of the proceeds from this event will be donated to the Conestee Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to developing Lake Conestee Nature Park and contiguous community lands into a nature park and wildlife sanctuary for public recreation.
The Easter Bunny Trail Hop 5K is race #2 in the 6 race Greenville Dirt Trail Run Series. Run at least 4 races in the series to be considered for the overall trail running championship for your age group. Details can be found at www.greenvillerec.com/trailraces.
