 Later this summer, the city of Fayetteville will host a new athletic event on Dixon Street that might seem a bit familiar to some longtime residents. The Dixon Street Mile is a one-mile race beginning and ending in front of George's Majestic Lounge on Dixon Street. Its first iteration will take place on July 27th. Fayetteville's Assistant Recreation Superintendent Tiffany Hoover says this isn't the first mile-long race in the city's history.
