It’s that time of year again for the 10th Annual Cannonball 5K. This year’s Cannonball will be at the same location as the last 3 years, the Georgia Premier Cross Country Course at Middle Georgia State University (3450 Fulton Mill Rd, Macon, GA 31206). This is a great opportunity to catch a glimpse of the Varsity State Course!

Additionally, this race is open to coaches, parents, friends, family, non-GAPPS teams, and all running enthusiasts. In order for them to participate, they will need to register by following the link below:
https://runsignup.com/Race/GA/Macon/2016Cannonball5k

Using this link runners will be able to sign up for the 5K (14 and older), the 3K (Ages 14 and under), and the 2k (10 and under). Additionally each year we have a Tot-Run for younger siblings (roughly 200m, free of cost and no registration necessary). The registration fee will include entry into the race, a timing Chip, a bib, and a 2023 Cannonball 5K T-Shirt (Deadline for receiving a T-Shirt at the event is Sunday, September 17th @ 11:59pm, registration beyond that will receive T-shirts in the mail).

The cost to participate for non-GAPPS runners is $35 for the 5K and $30 for the 3K and 2k. Same day registration will see a $5 increase. Online Registration will close on September 20th.

We would love to have some parents run in the race with our athletes!
