Trot for Education offers a 5K and one-mile fun run/walk. Funds raised through the event benefit BCEF, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that delivers needed educational tools for the benefit of students and teachers in all Blount County Schools.

Course Info: The 5K is a USATF-certified out-and-back course beginning and ending at the Clayton corporate offices parking lot.

School Incentives: We want to support ALL schools that come out to participate in the event! With that goal in mind, $1 from each entry will be donated back to the school that participant is representing. Every school that has registered participants will receive a check!

Additionally, the Top 3 Blount County Schools with the highest percentage of participation will earn bragging rights, a shiny trophy and will also receive a cash donation to their school!

Fun, Fun and More Fun! As we are planning this annual event, we are planning for a great day of family fun for everyone! To stay up to date, participate in fun promotions and hear about our great sponsors, be sure to like our Facebook page. Trot For Education Facebook Page
