EPIC 7K / 15K

Lace up for an unforgettable summer challenge at the EPIC 7K / 15K, set for Saturday, August 8, 2026, in scenic Fort Wayne, Indiana. This beautifully organized event, the final race in the Epic Summer Series, offers participants a choice of a classic 15K or a distinctive 7K distance, welcoming both seasoned runners and walkers alike with a generous 3-hour course limit. The race kicks off and concludes at Kreager Park, guiding athletes along an "amazingly scenic greenway" that winds gracefully along the picturesque Maumee River on an out-and-back course. While the terrain promises a refreshing journey through natural beauty, typical race day conditions in early August often see highs around 84°F and lows around 62°F, with a moderate chance of precipitation.

Runners can anticipate a well-managed event, known for its quality course organization and supportive atmosphere. Epic Racing Events, founded by local runner Mike Else, is dedicated to providing a memorable experience for every participant. Whether you're aiming for a new personal best on the flat, paved greenway or simply soaking in the natural splendor of the Maumee River, the EPIC 7K / 15K promises a rewarding and enjoyable race day.
