LakePoint Sporting Community in nearby Emerson, Ga. is starting a new Valentine’s Weekend tradition. On Saturday, Feb. 15th, the first LakePoint Run Series hybrid event will feature a ladies-only half marathon, 10K and 5K.
With a wine and chocolate theme, this fun run is a matter of the heart (health, that is). The run course—which begins and ends at LakePoint in the scenic mountains of Bartow County—features chocolate goodies along the way and ends with a Wine Brunch (alcohol- free options are also available).
The post-race block party will feature live music, shopping and the opportunity to sign up for mani-pedis and massages. While the run is ladies-only, everyone is welcome to cheer runners on and attend the block party!
“The topography and beauty of LakePoint will be on showcase during this inaugural event,” LakePoint Partner Judy Sparks said. “With more than 29 sports showcased at LakePoint, we are excited to provide one with such an important message as heart health.”
Race gear for all participants will include a t-shirt, a medal and a swag bag filled with chocolate and wine goodies. A portion of all race entry fees will go toward the American Heart Association.
