Lace up your shoes for the Ninja 5K, 10K, & 13.1M, a dynamic race hitting the pavement in Columbus, GA, on August 15, 2026. This US Road Running Race Series event welcomes runners of all levels to conquer distances of 5K, 10K, or a challenging Half Marathon. The course, situated at Rotary Park, features a scenic, paved out-and-back route offering plenty of shade, a welcome feature given typical race day conditions in mid-August see highs around 92F and lows near 74F, with a 14% chance of precipitation.

Beyond the miles, runners can look forward to earning a custom-themed finisher medal and are encouraged to showcase their creativity by competing for the Best Costume Award.
