The Tryon Running Club (TRC) is organizing the Third Annual Tryon Half Marathon set to take place on Saturday, Nov. 15 at Harmon Field. A portion of the race proceeds will benefit Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry to support its many programs including Feed-a-Kid and utility bill assistance programs. Like the past two years, local bank Tryon Federal will be an “Endurance Level” sponsor.

The race is so grateful for their continue support. “The sponsorships are vital to the success of the race and we are so lucky to have local businesses supporting us”, states race director Laura Phelps. The race is presented by Wells Fargo Advisors and in addition to Tryon Federal’s sponsorship we have several other local businesses including; Tempo Level sponsors Malone Coaching, Macon Bank and Tryon Daily Bulletin, Sprint Level sponsors Nature’s Storehouse, My Gym and Fitness and Inspire Massage and Yoga and Mile Marker sponsor Millard & Company.

Participants must pay a registration fee.

The Tryon Running Club is a 501(c)(3) chapter of the Road Runners Clubs of America that welcomes walkers and runners of all ages and abilities.
