Introducing The Loop 5K: Charlotte's newest road race event kicking off the spring season in Charlotte, NC and promoting fitness and wellness in the heart of SouthPark.
The inaugural race takes place along The Loop, a 3.1 mile urban trail that creates and connects great places throughout the SouthPark community. The route takes runners along the tree-lined streets surrounding SouthPark Mall, providing a blend of urban and suburban scenery. It's a moderately challenging course with some rolling hills, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced runners. This race is open to all, from competitive runners aiming for a fast finish to families and casual joggers who enjoy the relaxed, community-focused atmosphere.
The Post-Race Festival will feature music, food, and local vendor booths, creating an energetic atmosphere beyond the finish line. The Loop 5K is far more than just a race… it’s an annual gathering that celebrates active outdoor living in Charlotte.

This will be based on a prudent decision made on race weekend or race day by Sisu Events and local law enforcement officials. If the race is canceled due to inclement weather there will be neither refunds nor transfers. This position is consistent with USA Track & Field recommendations and with the protocol of sharing the risks associated with the sport of running. In the event of inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances, Sisu Events reserves the right to alter, cancel or eliminate any/all portions of the race.
