Complete the Challenge

In the heart of Hendersonville, North Carolina, the Kanuga Trail & Tri Challenge brings together an unforgettable weekend of racing, community, and mountain energy. Kick things off Saturday evening at the Twilight Trail 5K, then return Sunday morning for the Kanuga Triathlon. The Trail & Tri Challenge brings both events together for one unforgettable weekend—and participants earn finisher medals for each race, plus a RUN WNC performance towel and commemorative sticker to celebrate the accomplishment.
