Benefiting Charities:
Moore County Resource Center - The mission for Moore County Resource Center is to provide low income families from Moore Count y and their children with the tools to begin a successful school year.

Moore County Friends of Animals - Moore County Tennessee does not have an county funded animal shelter. The Moore County Friends of Animals a local animal rescue.
The reason for the limit participation level- Lynchburg is a very small town with essentially one road in and out. So getting a big number of vehicles into town in the hour or two prior to the race is a challenge.
- Parking is incredibly limited in town
- So in order to make the race a pleasant experience for everyone we have to limit the size of the race.
