2026 Eye Opener Girls International 5K Race

On a hot and humid morning, the 42nd Annual Eye Opener Cross Country Invitational was held on Sept. 5, 2026. This race attracts 100+ teams and 3800+ plus athletes from across the Southeast. The Girls International Race was the second event of the day. Thanks to the Milliken Corporation in Spartanburg, South Carolina for allowing the use of their beautiful Arboretum as the site. **** Urban Announcing specializes in sports announcing, commentary, and music entertainment for track & field, cross country, and road race events.
