Beck's 5K Run/Walk

Lace up your running shoes for the seventh annual Beck's 5K Run/Walk, a vibrant community event set to take place on Saturday, June 6, 2026, in Atlanta, Indiana. Offering both a 3.1-mile (5K) run/walk and a shorter 600-meter Kids Fun Run, this event provides an inclusive opportunity for all ages and fitness levels to get active. More than just a race, Beck's 5K has built a strong reputation over the last six years, raising nearly $250,000 for various charitable causes. This year, the event is dedicated to combating food insecurity, supporting 13 hyper-local organizations and including a multi-state food drive alongside a donation station on race day. It's a truly unique experience, welcoming strollers and even your leashed K9 companions to join in the fun.

The course, starting at 6767 E 276th St, Atlanta, IN, promises a chance to enjoy the beautiful Hamilton County scenery as you hit the pavement for a heart-healthy cause. Packet pickup is available the day before, Friday, June 5, from 4:00-6:00 p.m. at Beck's Research Building, with race day pickup from 6:30 a.m. to 7:15 a.m. EST. The 5K Run/Walk kicks off at 7:30 a.m., followed by the Kids Fun Run at 8:30 a.m.. Typical race day conditions in early June include comfortable highs around 81°F and lows around 58°F, with an 18% chance of precipitation, creating a pleasant atmosphere for your morning efforts. After crossing the finish line, celebrate your achievement at an energetic post-race bash featuring cool vendors and delicious food trucks.
