Knights on the Run 5K 2026

Knights on the Run is a road race in North Andover, Massachusetts, organized by NAAA. It features a traditional 5K and a kids run. Check-in and race-day registration begin at 8:30 a.m. at North Andover High School. Walk-in registration is available after online signup closes the previous evening. The kids event, Knights in Training, is for children under 12 and starts at 9:00 a.m. Its grade-group courses for Pre-K through second grade and third through fifth grade are each about a quarter mile. Proceeds support the North Andover Athletic Association, which has backed North Andover athletics for more than 50 years. When construction interrupts the traditional 5K course, the organizer still runs the kids event.
