“HPAC has ascended to become the premier running club in the Triad thanks to the Full Send efforts of all our amazing humans! We believe humans inspire other humans and everyday we’re inspired by our team members to be better, do better, and have more fun while we do really hard things.”

— Brandon Hudgins, HPAC Co-Founder

Having carved their story into the very earth, HPAC sets their sights higher!

2025: The Year of Ascendance

Because of our amazing team efforts in 2024 Full Send campaign, we can officially claim that 2025 is the Year of Ascendance.

In 2024, we embraced the Full Send, and the results were nothing short of extraordinary. We claimed our third straight Trivium North Carolina Cup title, sent athletes to compete at the 2024 Olympic Track and Field Trials, and celebrated countless achievements from our youth, adult, and masters athletes. From personal bests on the local stage to inspiring performances across the country, our community has shown us that hard work and determination can propel anyone to new heights.

At HPAC, inspiration comes from more than performance. It comes from the discipline to show up, the strength to persevere, and the kindness to lift each other up along the way. Our 2025 theme perfectly captures the spirit of HPAC. The track symbolizes the hard work that got us here, the clouds represent the dreams that guide us, and the sun represents the limitless potential ahead. We’re not just running; we’re ascending—together

Join us in 2025 and be part of a community that’s rewriting what’s possible. Whether you’re new to running, or chasing personal records, exploring your limits, or just want to surround yourself with amazing people, there’s a place for you here. If you want to go far, go together!
