26 – Transylvania County

Flight of the Vampire 5K
October 2019 – Brevard

Transylvania County was a fun one. We were there for their Halloween weekend. Some serious costumes out for the 5K. I think many people were more intent on winning the costume contest than running.
We lucked out, the start line was right in front of the bed & breakfast, so didn’t have to drive or worry about not knowing where to go. Course was not too hilly considering where we were.
Brevard is another one of those adorable little towns that has landed on the “we need to come back here” list.
