Get ready to dive into a festive 5K experience at Another Clucking 5K, set for Saturday, June 6, 2026, in Potterville, Michigan. This energetic 3.1-mile race isn't just a run; it's a vibrant part of the annual Potterville Gizzard Fest, offering a truly unique "beach" theme for 2026 where participants are encouraged to embrace the fun by sporting their favorite beach attire, including floaties, goggles, and sunscreen. Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 77°F and lows around 55°F, with only a 13% chance of precipitation, making for ideal running weather.

Starting and finishing at Potterville High School (425 E Main Street), the course route for 2026 is currently being enhanced, with more details on terrain and elevation to be released closer to the event. Every participant is set to feel like a winner with "clucking awesome" race gear, custom shirts, and newly redesigned, premium finisher medals, including special gold medals for the top three male and female finishers and ribbons for age group winners. The race, proudly timed by Chuck Block and the Michigan Running Foundation, ensures accurate results. After crossing the finish line, the festivities continue with a pancake breakfast fundraiser, a lively beer tent, various vendors, live entertainment, a classic car show, and other Gizzard Fest activities.

Another Clucking 5K is deeply rooted in Potterville's "City of Helping Hands" spirit, proudly supporting three impactful charity partners: Canines for Change, the Potterville High School Track & Cross Country teams, and CASA for Kids, Inc.. Participants may even have the chance to meet service dogs and possibly puppies from Canines for Change. This race, known for its fun atmosphere and community engagement, is also part of the Greater Lansing Area Race Series, making it a fantastic opportunity for both competitive runners and casual walkers looking for a memorable experience that gives back to the local community.
