Pilot Fireball Classic 5k
Date: July 2, 2011
Time: 9:00 p.m.
Location: University of Tennessee Veterinary School, Neyland Drive
The Fireball Classic, run on the eve of the 4th of July, is a unique race that has something for almost everyone. Starting at 9:00 pm, the late evening venue seems to appeal to competitive racers, casual runners and those who just want to have a fun evening.
Beginning in front of the University of Tennessee Veterinary School on Neyland Drive, the course skirts the UT campus. The turn-around is adjacent to the world famous Vols Football Stadium. A slight uphill lets runners and walkers know that the finish line is just around the corner. The entire course is well lit, flat and fast, ideal for a PR.
Post race activities are always filled with lots to drink and eat. It's a great way to begin this most patriotic holiday.
