Prepare to soar at the Eagle 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon, set to take flight on Saturday, July 11, 2026, in scenic Richmond, KY. Kicking off at 8:30 AM EDT from Whitehall Park, this event offers a perfect summer morning challenge for runners of all abilities, with distances of 5K, 10K, and a 13.1-mile Half Marathon. Typical race day conditions in July see highs around 86°F and lows around 66°F, with about a 20% chance of precipitation, making for a warm but often manageable run.

The Eagle race features engaging out-and-back courses designed to showcase the charm of Madison County on paved routes. The 5K and 10K utilize a 0.78-mile segment, with 5K participants completing two laps and 10K runners tackling four. Half marathoners will embark on six loops of a distinct 1.09-mile out-and-back course. With a generous time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes across all events, runners have ample opportunity to enjoy the experience and achieve their goals. All finishers will proudly earn a themed medal to commemorate their accomplishment, and those with a flair for fun can compete for the best costume award. This popular event is also part of a larger series, offering points to participants. Be sure to register in advance on RunSignup, as there will be no on-site registration.
