Goat Island Games 5 Mile and 5K

Get ready to experience everything that makes Cramerton incredible! Our race starts and finishes at the beautiful Goat Island, a 30-acre park in the South Fork Catawba River. You’ll race through Downtown Cramerton, pass the Veteran’s Memorial, run through Stuart Cramer High School’s state-of-the-art campus, and take in views of the iconic train trestle. The course peaks at a unique public art sculpture and finishes with a fast, downhill stretch through the Lakewood Neighborhood, crossing the finish line back at Goat Island! We are proud to be part of the Run Gaston Race Series! Goat Island Games started in 2016, and in 2018, the event added a 5K to the day’s schedule, later expanding to include a 5-miler as well, giving you even more ways to join in on the fun! The post-race festival will feature hydration and snacks for the runners, music, local vendor booths, and recovery workouts! Registration includes a chip-timed bib, race shirt, awards for overall winners & age group winners, and a whole lot of fun in Cramerton, NC! Register by Monday, April 14th to be guaranteed a shirt. Shirts are ordered based on the sizes indicated during online registration and we are not able to swap sizes. *Race is rain or shine and registration fees are non-refundable
