Lace up for a distinctive summer evening challenge at the Moonlight Run 5K, set to illuminate the streets of Collinsville, Oklahoma, on Friday, August 7, 2026. This unique event invites runners to experience the charm of downtown Collinsville as twilight descends, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional morning races. The 5K race kicks off at 8:00 PM CDT, preceded by a Fun Run at 7:30 PM CDT, making it a perfect opportunity to enjoy the town's scenery under the gathering dusk. Typical race day conditions in early August bring highs around 94°F and lows around 73°F, with a low chance of precipitation, creating a warm summer night atmosphere for your run.

The course guides participants through the heart of downtown Collinsville, providing an engaging urban landscape as you push for a new personal best or simply enjoy the community spirit. While specific elevation details are not widely advertised, the downtown setting suggests a generally flat and fast route, ideal for all levels of runners. The start and finish lines are conveniently located in the downtown area, with packet pickup activities centered around 113 S 11th Street, Collinsville.

Beyond the race itself, the Moonlight Run 5K serves a greater purpose as the 4th Annual Collinsville Moonlight 5K & Fun Run. This event is a fundraising effort by the Collinsville Chamber of Commerce and the Collinsville Education Foundation, with partial proceeds directly benefiting Collinsville Schools and Teachers, allowing your participation to support local education. All registered runners will receive a finisher's medal to commemorate their achievement, with early registrants also guaranteed an event t-shirt. Embrace the twilight and be part of a vibrant community event that blends fitness with local support.
