The 7th annual Running of the Balls, a night run/walk on a 5K(ish) course, winds through the Sunset Hills neighborhood. Participants run through one of the largest neighborhood light displays in the United States. Started years ago, the residents of this neighborhood decorate their 50-foot tall trees with enormous "Lighted Christmas Balls."<br />
Now the third largest race in Greensboro, its 3,500 runners annually raise more than $50,000 for Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC. Recognized by Runners World as an internationally unique event, the race draws participants from around the world through allowing them to experience the Lighted Christmas Balls of Sunset Hills at night. Adding to the ambiance of the race, the neighborhood course is filled with 7 stages of music. Homeowners often enjoy the event with friends caroling by campfire and having hot chocolate and cookies in the Start/Finish area.<br />
The 3,500 person field is regularly sold out within one month of registration opening.<br />

  • The 7th annual Running of the Balls, a night run/walk on a 5K(ish) course, winds through the Sunset Hills neighborhood. Participants run through one of the largest neighborhood light displays in the United States. Started years ago, the residents of this neighborhood decorate their 50-foot tall trees with enormous "Lighted Christmas Balls."<br />
Now the third largest race in Greensboro, its 3,500 runners annually raise more than $50,000 for Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC. Recognized by Runners World as an internationally unique event, the race draws participants from around the world through allowing them to experience the Lighted Christmas Balls of Sunset Hills at night. Adding to the ambiance of the race, the neighborhood course is filled with 7 stages of music. Homeowners often enjoy the event with friends caroling by campfire and having hot chocolate and cookies in the Start/Finish area.<br />
The 3,500 person field is regularly sold out within one month of registration opening.<br />
