Thank you for joining in on the Pop up 5k - REWIND 5k
The first ever 5k REWIND at the Pop up 5k in the park is in the books. So how was it? Did you run faster with the course in the opposite direction or? We had such a great time with all of you at the 4th race of the Pop up 5k summer series at Bill Moore Community Park in Fletcher, NC. Yay!
Every single time we come out to the Pop up 5k and see you all running towards your own personal goals, we get inspired. There is EVERY SINGLE ability level of runner/jogger/walker that shows up and all ages. We love seeing you all chase your PRs, chase the goal of running a 5k and show up with those big smiles on your faces.
Thanks for continuing to let us be part of this journey of health, wellness and movement that you have committed to in your life. We are witness to the beauty, strength, confidence and determination that these races are bringing out in you all.
Our last 5k of the Summer Series is on Wednesday, August 25th: 80s theme - Everyone’s got a pair of neon shorts or a Def Leppard shirt somewhere in their closet, so put them on display for the final event of the summer! Much like the Luau, a prize will go to our most rad dude or dudette.
Share the event info with your friends about the Pop up 5ks and encourage them to come out and join in the fun.
INDIVIDUAL SEARCHABLE RESULTS CAN BE FOUND HERE!

Congratulations Pop Up 5K Runners!
The Pop up 5K in the Park was a brand new running series for iDaph Events this year — and the first series of events since the pandemic knocked everything upside down. We weren’t sure how it would go — we had about 30 people at the first event, and we were happy with that number. But as word of mouth got out, it grew a little bigger and we ended up with over 550 participants by the end of the Summer Series, which we ended in September. We had 281 participants in the Fall Series in October.
Ages varied from 5 years old to 75 years old, and we had every range of athlete, from beginners, to cross country runners, families, veteran runners, fast runners, and people who just wanted to get out and walk and be part of the events. And we also had about 14 Virtual runners and a huge thank you to them - we really appreciate your support.
We say all that to say this: THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! From the bottom of our hears here at iDaph Events, our team is beyond grateful for your participation and support in order to move forward in the events industry.
Here’s a list of our top finishers
A huge thank you to our partners!
We owe a great deal of thanks to the town of Fletcher, and Bill Moore Community Park for allowing the event to take place at their location this year. Bill Moore Community Park is recognized as one of the best family parks in Western North Carolina, and it was the perfect location for these Pop Up 5ks.
huge thank you to our partners, Fleet Feet Asheville! And Erin with Mizuno - loved having her at our Pop Up 5Ks and we had lots of runners try on the new Mizuno running shoes.
