Eagle 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Charlotte, NC (30)

Lace up your running shoes for the Eagle 5K, 10K, & 13.1M, set to take flight on Saturday, July 25, 2026, in Charlotte, North Carolina. This exciting event kicks off at 8:30 AM from the picturesque Mallard Creek Playground, offering an ideal setting for runners of all levels to conquer their chosen distance. Whether you're aiming for a swift 5K, a challenging 10K, or the ultimate test of endurance in the Half Marathon, this race promises a vibrant atmosphere in the Queen City.

The Eagle race features an engaging out-and-back course that winds along the scenic Clark's Creek Greenway and Mallard Creek Greenway. Runners should prepare for a distinctive challenge: a noticeable hill awaits both at the start and will greet you again triumphantly at the finish line. The 5K is a single loop, the 10K doubles the fun with two loops, and half marathoners will tackle four loops of this dynamic route, which includes a mix of paved path and some gravel sections.

Participants can expect typical race day conditions in late July to feature highs around 91F and lows around 70F, with a 14% chance of precipitation, so plan your gear accordingly. Every finisher will proudly earn a commemorative medal to celebrate their accomplishment, and those with a flair for fun can vie for the "Best Costume" award. With a generous course limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes for the Half Marathon, the Eagle 5K, 10K, & 13.1M provides a supportive environment for achieving your running goals.
