The Milliken Earth Run cross country 5K is held annually on the beautiful campus of the Roger Milliken Research and Customer Center (RMC) in Spartanburg, SC. This course has been the selected site for NCAA, Jr. Olympics & Jr. College Championships and is the home of the Eye Opener High School and Collegiate Meet.

Milliken & Company encourages environmental stewardship with the event, while runners experience the mostly grass cross country course within the Milliken Arboretum.

This is a Greenville Track Club (GTC) Corporate Shield event. Individual recognition of award categories will be given in results for the Corporate Shield age categories. Corporate Shield age categories are Male, Female – Open, Masters (40 and over), Grand Masters (50 and over), and Senior Masters (60 and over).

There is a race cap of 600 participants. Online registration only. Event fees are non-refundable and not transferable to other events. No dogs allowed in race. Please note this is a cross-country course so it will be difficult for strollers. Strollers are allowed, but the rider(s) should not be registered as a race participant. Event shirts are available if purchased by 2/27 as an add-on for $10 each.

Volunteers receive a free race shirt!

Packet Pickup Information:

WHAT IS SIDEWALK HOPE?

Sidewalk Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to create a positive impact in the lives of children in the heart of our city and the communities in which they live through the hope of Jesus Christ. Sidewalk Hope is a mobile children’s church that takes church beyond the traditional four walls in a big yellow truck ~ right out to the sidewalk where children live and play in their own community!

WHAT DOES SIDEWALK HOPE DO?

Sidewalk Hope currently serves 300-350 children and teens (ages 2-17) each week through weekly visits right in their own communities. Our big yellow truck rolls out each week (year-round) to the sidewalks in four housing developments that are known to be underserved areas of concentrated poverty. We build relationships with the children and teens weekly through fun activities, singing, Bible lessons, food & snacks, and prayer time. In 2025, we were able to provide 750 backpacks full of school supplies and 750 Christmas Blessing bags filled with items such as blankets, toiletries, candy, Bibles or scripture activity books, and toys to children in need.

Throughout the year, Sidewalk Hope faithfully serves by providing weekly food bags filled with snacks and fresh fruit for the children. We offer leadership activities and field trips for teens, sponsor and send up to 25 teens to Camp Grace each summer, and provide extra food during the summer months when school meals are unavailable. Additionally, we distribute Bibles, toiletries, blankets, coats, hats, gloves, and food boxes to meet urgent needs. Sidewalk Hope is committed to meeting not only the spiritual needs of the children and teens we serve, but also their physical and emotional needs — all as a way to share the full love of Christ.

This year, Sidewalk Hope is celebrating 11 years of service to the youth in Spartanburg's community and we are preparing to expand into the Greenville area soon! By regularly meeting children where they live, personally investing in their lives, building long-term relationships, presenting the Gospel, and demonstrating the love of Christ in accessible ways, Sidewalk Hope is able to bring hope to an underserved population of children. Currently, there are no other organizations doing this type of ministry in our area.

HOW WILL THIS RACE HELP?

The proceeds from The Amazing Grace Race will directly benefit the children and teens served by Sidewalk Hope all year long. Join us for a morning of fun with your family and friends — and make a lasting impact in the lives of some truly amazing young people!

Mark your calendar and register TODAY!

While not required, we invite you to consider making a donation along with your registration. Your investment will yield a return beyond measure as we share the love of Christ with the next generation.
