The Experience
As promised, the spirit of Betsy Farris will live on in the hearts of runners for years to come! Introducing the all-new Betsy Farris Memorial Biscuit Run - Half Marathon - 10k - 5k! Everything is still the same as it was before the Treeline Music Fest cancellation. Time. Date. You'll still get a delicious breakfast burrito from Dive Bar at the finish, but NOW you'll also get a biscuit thanks to our friends at Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar. We've teamed up with Biscuits, Beats, and Brews: A Free Music Fest to keep this event running and we're pleased that we were able to do that. Haven't registered yet Come be a part of the race that celebrates music, healthy living and the legacy of Betsy Farris. ------- Betsy Farris worked on the festival for 9 years. In her spare time, she trained, inspired, and mentored hundreds of people on their journey to get fit and stay healthy. Tree Line Music Fest is honored to recognize Betsy with this event. All participants will receive a race shirt, a finisher’s medal, and free breakfast burrito and biscuit after the event.
