2025 5K and Kids Dash options
Make sure you sign up soon to get the good stuff 👇🏻
We're working behind the scenes to ensure that this year's race shirts and medals are as selfie-worthy as prior years. But just like prior years, supplies will go faster than a PR. Make sure you sign up soon - and keep an eye out for the big reveals coming soon.
Run the NOON Year's Eve 5K
Run in the New Year with us at the 3rd annual NOON Year's Eve 5K! This popular holiday 5K sold out the first two years, so we're expecting a full house again in 2025.
The 5K kicks off with a traditional New Year's Eve countdown at NOON! All paces are welcome. Runners (and walkers!) will enjoy a certified cross country course with scenic views of the lake and surrounding parkland.
SWAG
If you love swag, we've got you covered! 5K participants will receive a long sleeve, branded race shirt, a finisher medal and post-race lunch/beverages. Make sure you sign up early to secure your swag though, as we do expect another sellout. If you prefer to keep it simple, we offer a "Go Green" option where runners can opt out of a shirt and medal (but you still get to enjoy the post-race sustenance!).
AWARDS
Visit our awards page for details on overall and age group awards, including our exclusive awards for the fastest LAST MILE of 2025!
KIDS DASH
The NOON Year's Eve Kids Dash starts at 12:45 pm. The little ones dash 0.25 miles from the start to finish line and receive their own branded finisher medal.
Countdown to the 2025 NOON Year's Eve 5K
Make it a Double! ✌🏼
The fun doesn't have to stop when you cross the finish line at the NOON Year's Eve 5K. Join us the next day - on New Year's - for the Charlotte New Year's Day 5K.
Kick off 2026 with the same great vibes. New Year's Double participants will enjoy all the great swag and benefits of each race. But that's not all. You'll also get exclusive New Year's Double swag (reveal coming soon).
Ready to make it a Double? Let's run ✌🏼
