Aloft - Greenville Downtown

We are excited to have a host hotel in Greenville – Aloft Greenville Downtown! We will have early packet-pick up and a social on Thursday, April 12th at Aloft, so come early and stay for the long weekend.
Aloft Greenville Downtown is located in the heart of downtown's vibrant district overlooking One City Plaza and minutes from Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP). Guests have easy access to Main Street, the Peace Center for Performing Arts, and Falls Park on the Reedy. Asheville is a short one-hour drive from downtown Greenville and Aloft is a 15 minute walk from the finish line.

Local Brew

Highland Brewing Company
Highland Brewing Company has crafted the highest quality beer with North Carolina mountain water since 1994. Family-owned and Asheville’s first legal brewery since Prohibition, it is a favorite destination for beer fans, music fans, and families. Highland’s name honors the Scots Irish who settled in the Appalachian Mountains in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Favorite Brew: Oatmeal Porter - This robust beer is black in color, very malty with hints of chocolate-roasted flavor and a well-balanced hop character.

Good Eats

White Duck Taco Shop
With a new location opening in Greenville and two locations in Asheville (and a third on the way), White Duck Taco Shop should be convenient and on your short list of places to try. Both affordable and tasty, their rotating menu changes with the seasons.

Our favorites:
Bangkok Shrimp Taco - Both sweet and spicy topped with pickles and carrots. Jerk Chicken Taco - Mild jerk spice topped with purple slaw and pineapple.*Most tacos are only $3.45!

Transition Sponsor

Beechwood Farms
Located just north of Travelers Rest, SC, Beechwood Farms will serve as our next to last transition. Runners will enter the back part of the farm and get to run through the farm to the roadside market. Pick up some fresh strawberries for a little late race energy boost!
