The Resolution Run in Downtown Marion is back for the 5th year! The Resolution Run 5K will kick off downtown Marion's New Year's Eve celebration! This is an annual event co-hosted by the City of Marion and the Marion Rotary Club. This year is special because the race will also be kicking off North Carolina's 2023 Year of Trail, which is a statewide year-long celebration of the vast network of trails, greenways, and blueways. NC Year of the Trail is the largest statewide celebration of trails and outdoor recreation in North Carolina history.
Marion's New Year's Eve Celebration was voted one of the top small-town New Year's Eve Celebrations by Country Living in 2017. The Resolution Run 5K is the kick-off event for the New Year's Eve Celebration, which takes place on Main Street in downtown Marion, NC. The 5K is a loop course and will begin and end in the center of downtown. After the race, stick around and enjoy all of the other New Year's Eve activities including the Gold Nugget Drop at midnight.
All 5K participants who register by December 11th will receive a long-sleeved t-shirt and a sparkly finisher medal.
The Resolution Run will start at 9:00 pm at the intersection of Main Street and East Court Street. Sign in will run from 6:30pm to 8:30pm on the courthouse lawn. This event will be a nighttime run/walk event so participants are encouraged to wear reflective gear, glowing accessories, or even bring a headlamp or flashlight. . There is a costume contest during the New Year's Eve Celebration, and we would love for everyone to adorn their New Year’s gear in advance of the contest later in the evening!
This is a fun, family and friends event that encourages everyone to come out to have a great time and possibly even start a New Year’s Resolution with a healthier lifestyle OR just have fun kicking off the New Year walking or running through downtown Marion.
