    Mountain Trail Runs & Hikes

    Run and hike the trails of Camp Rockmont with Bruce Mulkey and Shonnie Lavender!

    Friday 5pm for a hike.
    Saturday 8:30am for a Run.
    Meet at the Boat House.

    Social & athletic outings (running too fast to chat? running too fast) for runners of all levels (leave no runner behind). Explore the trails, experience the Appalachians up close and witness extraordinary views of Mt. Mitchell and the festival below. Bring water + snack. www.brucemulkey.com
    www.shonnielavender.com

    "The runs get me up and out and in my body and connect me to people that I later see on the dance floor, at the beach, or at one of the tents. It has become an essential part of LEAF for me.
