THE RIVERFRONT RUN is now a part of the FlintFest! The RiverFront Run is an annual event presented by the Dougherty County Medical Society as a way for physicians to lead by example and share with their patients the importance of incorporating physical activity and exercise into their daily routines. The 5K (3.1 Mile) and 1 Mile events are both run and walk friendly. "The idea is for people to get moving," said race founder, Dr. Jose Tongol. DCMS is proud to donate a portion of the race proceeds to the Darton College Foundation, Inc., Allied Health Program. Darton College is one of the leading producers of health care professionals within the SW Georgia area.

CHECK OUT THE 5K COURSE ! Runners and walkers LOVE our beautiful 5K and 1 Mile course. The out-and-back 5K course begins on a paved trail behind the Albany Welcome Center and features scenic overlooks along the Flint River. At the midway point, the course goes “off road” and runs through the Oxford Environmental Park Nature Trail. Runners will also enjoy CHIP TIMING!
Special thanks to our stars, Lawson Swan, Amy and Josh Fix.
