Lace up your shoes for the Eagle 5K, 10K, and 13.1M, taking flight in Montgomery, Alabama, on Saturday, July 25, 2026. This event, held at the scenic Blount Cultural Park, offers runners of all levels a chance to achieve their goals on a flat, road-surface course. The race kicks off at 8:00 AM CDT, perfect for an early start to beat the typical July conditions, which historically see highs around 94°F and lows around 73°F, with a 16% chance of precipitation.
The Eagle features an accessible out-and-back course design. 5K participants will complete two laps of a 0.78-mile route, while 10K runners will tackle four loops. For those seeking a greater challenge, the Half Marathon entails six loops of a 1.09-mile course. This looped format provides excellent opportunities for pacing and strategic hydration. With a generous course time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes, this race welcomes both seasoned athletes and those new to the distances.
Packet pickup begins 30 minutes before the race start, concluding 10 minutes prior, and all registrations must be completed online via RunSignup—no on-site registration will be available. Finish all three distances and earn a well-deserved finisher medal to commemorate your achievement. Adding to the fun, participants are encouraged to embrace their creativity, as awards are also given for the best costume, fostering a vibrant and festive atmosphere.
