RED CARPET 10k 5K 2K
10th Annual - Conventional Race October 24, 2020
Virtual Race from Registration to October 24th
Special Announcement
It is with great regret, due to the high fixed cost associated with the Dalton Red Carpet Conventional Race, less than normal entries due to COVID-19, and concern about the safety of runners and volunteers, we have decided to cancel the Conventional Dalton Red Carpet Road Race. Runners are being given the option of a 100% refund, including Eventbrite fees or transferring to the Virtual Race. We will present Finish Medals to Virtual10K finishers as well as hoodies and present hoodies to Virtual 5K runners. We will also have Male and Female Overall, Masters, and Grandmaster Awards as well as Age Group trophies three deep in each Age Group for both races.
​
If you have registered for the Conventional Race, you should have gotten an email letting you know what you want to do, either get the refund or transfer. If you haven't, send the information to daltonhalf@aol.com. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Dalton Red Carpet 10K 5K 2K Road Race
The 10th Annual Dalton Red Carpet 10K/5K/2K runs along the streets of this northern Georgia city that's often called the "carpet capital of the world" thanks to its plentiful carpeting, dye and home construction industry.
Though the areas around the city are marked by the sight of rolling mountainous terrain and the trees of the Chattahoochee National Forest are off in the distance, the terrain for the race is mostly flat and fast by contrast, as it follows an out-and-back course that starts and finishes in the city of Dalton, which lies just east of the Interstate 75 highway between Atlanta and Chattanooga, Tennessee.
