The 5th annual Kindness Classic is a 5K, 10K and a 1K Kids Flash Dash along rolling hills in the shadow of Mount Magazine. Enjoy both waterfront and wooden landscapes as you run along the cart path surrounded by manicured fairways, smoothly sloping greens, and some of the most spectacular scenery in the state. Chamberlyne Country Club opened in 1997 and this is the first/only race to be held on location.
The Kindness Classic honors Kayla Morris and Landry Morris, two very special people to the surrounding community who ran their race everyday showing that kindness matters.
All profits from the race will go to the Kayla and Landry Morris Memorial Fund.
