About the Event

Welcome to the 49th running of the Green Valley Road Race!  Our host venue will be Trailblazer Park in Travelers Rest, SC. We have 2 options for you on February 7, 2026.

1) Green Valley Road Race 10 Miler - certified - our traditional course travels from Trailblazer Park in TR out to Green Valley and back.   This course is not easy.  When you've finished it, you'll know you've accomplished something!

2) Travelers Rest 5K (non-certified) this course will stay mostly in TR neighborhoods.  It's still hilly, but much more approachable than the 10 mile.  

As always with Greenville Track Club events, you can expect our courses will be well marked and accurately measured.  Our venue is top notch with bathrooms with plumbing and a pavilion for a bit of shelter. Our awards will be premium and way cool.  And I suspect there will be a door prize or two. After the race, enjoy a meal at one of TR's excellent restaurants like Tandem, Farmhouse Tacos, or Sidewall Pizza.

Our included giveaway for the 10 mile will be a high quality Next Level brand hoodie (unisex sizes).  Our included giveaway for the 5k will be a high quality Next Level brand long sleeve t-shirt (unisex sizes). 

NOTE: After 1/25 shirts are while supplies last. You will see available sizes during the registration process and before you checkout.

About Travelers Rest

Scenic view of

Travelers Rest is a city in Greenville County, South Carolina. Its population was 7,788 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Greenville-Mauldin-Easley Metropolitan Statistical Area. Travelers Rest, the northernmost city in Greenville County, is located 10 miles north of Greenville and around 20 miles south of the North Carolina border. The town was founded by J.W. Donaldson, of the famed J.W. Donaldson & Sons Bloodstock cattle empire. Initially built as a reprieve for his oxen and coach herd, the family eventually did yoke and axle repair for settlers headed out on the Oregon Trail. Later, the Dry Goods Warehouse became the start to the Swamp Rabbitfoot Trail. Furman University, a private liberal-arts university, was annexed into the city limits of Travelers Rest in April 2018 and North Greenville University, a private Christian institution, is located in nearby Tigerville.
