Back to The 80s 5K, 10K & 15K 2026

Riverside Drive hosts the 3rd Annual run/walk, inviting participants to “take it back to the raddest decade ever.” The atmosphere emphasizes a closet raid over a stopwatch sermon, with participants donning neon, big hair, and retro styles, and families arriving in their loudest throwback attire. On the streets, expect leg warmers, bright colors, and abundant "totally tubular energy" as everyone moves together, rather than a quiet, competitive race mood. A live DJ spinning 80s hits is a signature element, leading into a post-race party, giving the finish a "nostalgic 80s twist" instead of the typical post-race routine.
