Celebrating its second year, this event, presented by Apex Promoz, takes place at the Horry County Panther Run trail. This year, a new trail location has been added to make the event even more exciting. The Apex Trail Run offers two options: a 5K run or walk, and a 6-hour laps challenge. The 5K race will have a competitive heat and a non-competitive heat, allowing faster participants to start ahead of the larger group. Registration is limited to 350 participants. The 6-hour laps challenge will start at 7:50 a.m. and continue running the 5K course until the 1:50 p.m. cut-off time. The winner will be the person who completes the most laps in the shortest time. Awards will be given for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in both male and female categories. Each runner must start their last lap by 1:30 p.m. The trails are beginner-friendly and flat, but still provide a unique challenge with switchbacks and grassy surfaces. All participants will receive a t-shirt and a commemorative finisher’s medal. Parking will be available at the Carolina Forest Recreation Center. Carolina Forest Rec Center, 2254 Carolina Forest Blvd. Saturday, 7:30 a.m. $22 and $30.  (910) 200-8994, www.apexpromoz.com
