Eagle Gleaux Run

Get ready to light up the night at the third annual Eagle Gleaux Run, returning to the scenic Sugar Mill Pond in Youngsville, Louisiana, on Saturday, March 7, 2026. This vibrant evening event offers distances for everyone, with both a 3.1-mile (5K) race and a 1-mile fun run. The festivities kick off at 5:00 PM CST, with the 5K starting at 6:15 PM CST, providing a unique opportunity to race as dusk settles and the "gleaux" truly begins.

The course winds through the picturesque Sugar Mill Pond area, known for its pleasant scenery, promising a relatively flat and enjoyable experience for participants of all ages and skill levels. While specific aid station details are not provided, the shorter distances typically mean runners can focus on the fun and atmosphere. Runners can expect typical race day conditions to be pleasant, with highs around 71F and lows around 52F, and only a 12% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for an evening run.

Beyond the run, the Eagle Gleaux Run is a fantastic community event, with proceeds benefiting the ARCA High School Athletic Department. Gather your friends and family for an evening of fitness, camaraderie, and glowing fun at this memorable Youngsville tradition.
