Olivia Kate's Path 5K

The third annual Olivia Kate's Path 5K is a community run and walk in Kennesaw for all ages, with a virtual option for anyone who can't make it on race day. The race honors Olivia Kate Pugh, a Harrison High School senior whose life was taken by an impaired driver. Olivia played softball, flag football and basketball, ran track, and was president of the Beta Club. Her family and friends remember her kindness, and her motto was "She believed she could so she did." Proceeds fund the Olivia Kate Pugh Strength and Shield Scholarship. Each year Harrison faculty and coaches nominate seniors who work hard, stay motivated and are kind to the people around them, and at least one scholarship is awarded. The race runs on a USATF-certified 5K course and is an official Peachtree Road Race qualifying event. The out-and-back route follows Due West Road to Burnt Hickory Baptist Church and returns to Harrison, with chip timing by Elite Race Timing. Medals go to the top three overall, the top three masters and the top three in each age group, male and female. Virtual runners are not ranked, and their times do not count for Peachtree qualifying. - Team discounts start at 5 runners. - Packet pickup: Friday, February 26, 4:00 to 7:00 PM, in front of the Harrison High main office, or on race day at check-in from 7:30 AM - Parking: free
