Little Rooster Run 2026

Little Rooster Run is a trail-race evening at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds and Park in Glencoe, Kentucky, offering three options on the same schedule. Children 10 and under can complete a half-mile fun run. The 5K trail race follows, with a two-hour cutoff allowing walkers to participate without being rushed. The event, now in its second year, is organized by Ultra Ridge Runners Racing. Glencoe is located in rural northern Kentucky between I-71 and I-75, accessible for runners from Cincinnati, Lexington, or Louisville. The Mini Barnyard Ultra Trail is a unique feature: an evening "last runner standing" race that can continue late into the night. In a past edition, Chris Emberton won after 28 laps, covering 58.33 miles in 14 hours.
