Lace up for an unforgettable evening at the Terra Blanca Wine Run 5K, set amidst the breathtaking scenery of the Terra Blanca Winery and Estate Vineyard in Benton City, WA. This annual event, taking place on Friday, June 5, 2026, at 6:00 PM PDT, promises a unique experience for both runners and wine enthusiasts. The 5K course offers a scenic tour through the picturesque vineyards, primarily on roads, making it suitable for both competitive runners and leisurely walkers. Described as fast and flat, the two-lap route showcases the Tuscan-inspired architecture of the winery, perched on the southwest slope of the nationally-acclaimed Red Mountain AVA.

Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with comfortable highs around 77F and lows around 53F, accompanied by a mere 3% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for a twilight run. What truly sets this race apart is the vibrant atmosphere and the rewarding post-race celebration. Participants receive a super soft ring-spun cotton t-shirt, a shatterproof, collapsible wine glass, and a distinctive finisher medal that cleverly doubles as a wine stopper. For those 21 and over, a complimentary pour of Terra Blanca's exquisite wines awaits at the finish line, rounding out a perfect blend of fitness and fine wine. Free race photos are also available for download, capturing your memorable experience.

The Terra Blanca Wine Run 5K is more than just a race; it's an experience that supports a good cause, partnering with organizations like the Lauren McCluskey Foundation. While the event embraces the wine theme, minors are welcome to participate and receive race swag without the wine benefits. Strollers are also permitted, though runners should be mindful of some uneven terrain on the course. With its stunning vineyard views, engaging course, and festive post-race offerings, this event is consistently reviewed as a fantastic time for all who attend.
