I did this race last year. It is a no frills event, but lots of fun for the family. Your odds of leaving with a trophy are very good. You can easily register on race day. I am trying to git the City of Rocky Mount to put the entry form online to you can at least print a copy and mail it in. If so, I will post a link.

Happy running!
