Shot in the Dark Fun 5K

The Shot in the Dark Fun 5K is a lively evening race held in Snead, Alabama, at Sharecroppers Coffee and Creamery. Designed to celebrate the end of summer, this 5K run takes place at night, encouraging participants to bring flashlights for visibility. Runners receive a shirt and glow kit, adding to the festive atmosphere.

The race is timed but not chip timed, and all finishers who complete the run and take a shot of cold brew coffee at the end earn a special "I took a shot in the dark" medal. Proceeds support the Sharecroppers Soles program, which provides shoes to running athletes. Prizes are awarded to top male, female, and age group finishers.
