Golden Harvest Half Marathon & 5k/10k - Lansing

Lace up your running shoes for the Golden Harvest Half Marathon & 5k/10k - Lansing, a cherished annual event taking place on Sunday, September 27, 2026, in Lansing, MI. This family-friendly race offers a distance for every goal and every age, including a Half Marathon (13.1M), 10K (6.2M), 5K (3.1M), and a fun 1 Mile event, plus a Kids Dash for the youngest runners.

Organized by Bodies Race Company, known for their focus on "Fun.Family.Fitness," this event promises an engaging atmosphere for participants of all skill levels.

Aid stations along the course will provide water, with Half Marathon aid stations also offering sports drink to keep you fueled.

While the exact course map and start/finish location details in Lansing are announced closer to race day, the organizers prioritize creating enjoyable routes in local parks. This event also welcomes leashed dogs and strollers (asking participants to start at the back of the pack) and offers special youth-based pricing for the 5K and 10K, making it a truly inclusive experience. For those unable to attend in person, a virtual race option allows you to participate from anywhere and still earn the event's coveted swag.
