Corona Light Race to the Taste 5K will be held on Saturday, June 7 and will start and finish at the Taste of Charlotte Festival in beautiful uptown Charlotte! .
The 5K Corona Light Race to the Taste will start at 9am followed by the Cupcake Run/Walk at 9:45am. The 5K course will follow the city streets Uptown for a beautiful skyline view. Runners can participate in the traditional full course 5k or can enjoy a lighter menu of the 1 mile Cupcake Run/Walk...grabbing cupcakes along the route - racing to the end or taking it slow enjoying their local cupcakes.
Making the race more appetizing, all Runners of the 5K will receive a premium race shirt and awesome swag bag which includes fun gifts, a Corona Light after the run and a Taste of Charlotte Super Coin that can be used to purchase any food item from any of the participating restaurants at the festival.
Participants of the Cupcake Run/Walk will receive a t-shirt and cupcakes!! You can run or walk in both at a discounted rate
Taste of Charlotte has partnered with the Charlotte Checkers Charitable Foundation for the race and a donation will be made from the proceeds. The Checkers will be onsite with Chubby Checker and the Checkmates to help cheer on the runners.
