Lace up for the inaugural Woolf on the Run 5K and 1 Mile Kids Fun Run, set to take place on Saturday, April 25, 2026, in scenic Knoxville, Tennessee! This exciting event at Victor Ashe Park offers a fantastic opportunity for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities to hit the paved greenways while supporting a meaningful cause. Proceeds from the Woolf on the Run directly benefit the Tennessee School for the Blind, contributing to essential educational experiences and resources for students.
The course, an out-and-back lollipop loop, starts and finishes at the Victor Ashe Park Pavilion, guiding participants through the park's tranquil paved greenways, including sections alongside the frisbee golf course and connecting to the Northwest Middle School Greenway. Runners can expect a generally flat to gently rolling terrain, perfect for achieving a personal best or enjoying a leisurely stroll with family. Typical race day conditions in late April offer comfortable highs around 74°F and lows around 48°F, with only an 18% chance of precipitation, creating ideal running weather. A water station will be available around the 1.25-mile mark on the 5K course.
All 5K participants will receive a stylish T-shirt and a goody bag, with age group medal awards presented in 10-year increments. Younger runners in the 1 Mile Fun Run will also receive a special token for their participation. With restrooms and convenient parking located near the start/finish, the Woolf on the Run promises a well-organized and community-focused experience for everyone involved. Join fellow enthusiasts in Knoxville for a day of fitness, fun, and philanthropic spirit.
