Armadillo Dash

Lace up your running shoes for the Armadillo Dash, a beloved community 5K taking place on March 7, 2026, in charming Robertsdale, Alabama. This exciting event, hosted at Rosinton Elementary School (19757 County Road 64), offers a 5K Run/Walk along with a fun 1-mile Fun Run, making it perfect for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. The 5K kicks off at 9 AM, followed by the Fun Run at 10 AM, promising a lively morning for everyone involved.

More than just a race, the Armadillo Dash is a vibrant community festival dedicated to supporting Rosinton Elementary School. Participants can look forward to a festive atmosphere complete with live music, local vendors, a bounce house for the kids, and even a silent auction, ensuring the fun continues long after you cross the finish line. Typical race day conditions in early March often bring pleasant weather, with highs around 70°F and lows around 47°F, and only a 12% chance of precipitation, creating ideal running conditions. Awards will be presented to the top male and female overall finishers in both the 5K Run and 5K Walk, as well as the top three in various age groups. Join fellow runners and community members for a day of fitness, fun, and philanthropic spirit, all contributing to a brighter future for local students.
