Lanes of Light Twin Lakes Community Fun Run/Walk

Lanes of Light Twin Lakes Community Fun Run/Walk is held in Burlington, North Carolina, on December 6, 2026. There is one format, a 2-mile run or walk (3.2 km) with an evening start at 5:30 p.m. That time of day is the defining feature: in early December you will be moving in the dark from the first steps, which gives the outing a very different feel from a morning race.

Dress for visibility rather than speed. Something reflective, and a headlamp or handheld light if the route is not fully lit, matter more than your shoe choice over two miles. The distance itself is within reach of almost anyone, including families walking together, and experienced runners can use it as a shakeout after a longer weekend session. Eating earlier in the afternoon, rather than right before you head out, will keep the evening comfortable.
