Corridas de 5K perto de Hawesville

O RYR Endurance Race Weekend é um evento anual em Owensboro, Kentucky, com marathon, half marathon, 50K ultra, 10K e 5K distribuídos em dois dias. O formato do marathon é bem diferente: no sábado tem um marathon com limite de 9 horas, e no domingo rola um marathon competitivo pra quem está mirando índice pra Boston ou RP. Os dois usam o mesmo percurso certificado pela USATF, que também inclui as primeiras rotas certificadas de marathon e half marathon da região. O percurso é um vai-e-volta em múltiplas voltas por uma greenway asfaltada, com altimetria bem baixa, acompanhando um creek, passando por dois lagos e cruzando trechos arborizados. Esse formato em loop facilita pra torcida ver a galera várias vezes do mesmo ponto, e os corredores contam com postos de apoio padrão e também mesas de suporte pessoal. No sábado, o marathon divide o percurso com o half marathon e o 50K; no domingo, o marathon tem pelotão limitado e acontece sozinho. Todo mundo recebe camiseta, quem termina leva uma medalha grande, e todo o lucro vai para o Wendell Foster Center.

The Wendell Foster Half Marathon & 5K weekend is based in Owensboro, Kentucky. The race expo and check-in are held at the Owensboro Convention Center prior to race day. Runners collect bibs and shirts at the expo, which also features running gear, local vendors, hydration and nutrition products, photo opportunities, local organizations, and supporters of Wendell Foster. While Friday expo attendance is optional, all participants must check in before the race; early check-in helps reduce race-day lines. The 5K begins and ends at Smothers Park on the Owensboro riverfront, located at 199 West Veterans Boulevard. This race is open to all ages and suitable for walkers, joggers, novice racers, families, friends, and competitive runners. The event benefits Wendell Foster, and the 5K concludes with an official after-party at Goodwood.

The Friends of McCormick's Creek 5K Run/Walk is an annual 5K held in Owen County, Indiana. It is organized by the nonprofit Friends of McCormick's Creek and offers prizes for the top overall finishers among both runners and walkers. The race supports projects at McCormick's Creek State Park, including efforts to preserve, restore, manage, and interpret the park's natural and cultural heritage. Funds also go toward recreation improvements and free educational programs for park visitors of all ages. Participants registering by the shirt deadline receive a race shirt; additional shirts will be distributed as available after that date.
