    Welcome to the Purple Martin Fabulous 4 Miler!

    Get ready for a challenging, hilly course that mirrors the terrain of Rutherfordton—perfect for pushing yourself beyond the typical 5K. This out-and-back race on the Purple Martin Greenway winds along scenic woods and Cleghorn Creek, crossing three picturesque bridges, including two covered bridges.

    This year, we’re going red, white, and blue in celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, so wear your patriotic gear and make it a race to remember!

    Not only will you test your endurance, but your participation also helps support the growth and enhancement of the Greenway for the community. Lace up, embrace the challenge, and celebrate both your strength and our nation’s milestone!

    Brought to you by the Spindale Burrito League!

    How many times can you run a 0.34 mile segment? How about if the time to complete gets shorter and shorter by the hour?

    This race will be a modified version of a last man standing style race.

    For the first hour, you will run the segment every 6 minutes. That time will reduce by 1 minute each hour. After the 4th hour the segment time will cap at 3:00 minutes. The race will end when there is only 1 person left.

    Every two hours we will pause for 10 minutes for a bathroom break.
