Scholars Run

The Scholars Run is the second event in the 2026 Healthy Blount Triple Crown of Running. Participants in all three 5K events are eligible for cash awards, door prizes, and a memento. Participating in the Reindeer Run and one other Triple Crown event offers a shot at door prizes worth at least $50 each. All participants receive a short-sleeved shirt, with size guaranteed for pre-registrants. The 5K course uses city streets; the 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk is on the Maryville College campus. A portion of proceeds benefits the Community Food Connection of Blount County.
