Lace up your running shoes for the Chick-fil-A Road Race, set to take place on Saturday, June 20, 2026, in scenic Parkersburg, West Virginia. This popular event features both a challenging 10K and an accessible 2-Mile run/walk, ensuring a distance for every participant. The 10K course proudly holds the designation of the RRCA Eastern Regional 10k Championship, offering a certified, fully paved, and largely flat two-loop route designed for personal bests. Both races kick off on 20th Street beside the Parkersburg High School Field House, with the excitement culminating as runners cross the finish line on the track inside the PHS Stadium Field.

Runners can anticipate a well-supported experience, with the 10K course featuring two water stops to keep you hydrated, and medical personnel readily available at the finish line for all participants. The 2-Mile course provides a single loop with a turnaround on Washington Street, perfect for those seeking a shorter distance or a relaxed pace. Typical race day conditions in late June bring highs around 83°F and lows around 61°F, with an approximately 18% chance of precipitation, making for potentially warm but manageable running weather.

Beyond the race itself, the Chick-fil-A Road Race fosters a vibrant community atmosphere. Participants can look forward to a complimentary lunch provided by Chick-fil-A, and a portion of the race proceeds benefits the Dirk Bosgraf Strecker Cancer Center Fund, adding a meaningful charitable component to your efforts. This combination of a competitive, certified course and a supportive community event makes the Chick-fil-A Road Race a must-do on your 2026 racing calendar.
