Run with the speed of light through Starry Nights

For years runners, walkers and bikers have been able to enjoy Starry Nights up close and personal on Monday nights for just $5. But this year, Breakaway Running and Shelby Farms are taking that experience to the next level.

They are introducing the "Starry Nights 4k". It's a race through the Starry Nights display at Shelby Farms and it should be a blast!

There is a $20 registration fee and the money goes to help Shelby Farms Park and Shelby Farms Greenline, a resource many runners across Shelby county enjoy.

You will also get a glow in the dark shirt!

Here is the information about the 4k:
