Join the Kannapolis Fire Department and the Fire Explorers as we run back in time. The Fall Back 5K Run will start at 1:50 a.m. on November 4. (The run will take place during the time change, which happens at 2 a.m. For example, if you run a 30 minute 5K, your finish time will be around 1:20 a.m.) We’ll have lots of fun staying awake and falling back in time! The run route starts and ends on the beautiful NC Research Campus in Kannapolis.

Proceeds will benefit the Fire Explorer Post and the Kannapolis Firefighters Burned Children’s Fund.

Run Kannapolis is part of the City of Kannapolis’ Discover a Healthy Life brand and cosponsored by Atrium Health. Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are invited to participate in this unique series featuring the best 5K runs/walks in the city. Each run is held in Downtown Kannapolis and hosted by a nonprofit in the City who benefits from the entry fees.

Runners/walkers are encouraged to participate in the entire series of eight races for a unique prize but you can win awards for finishing no less than five events. Register at www.runkannapolis.com.

We hope to see you at the finish line!
