Centerpoint Half Marathon and 5K

Centerpoint Half Marathon and 5K takes place in Prattville, Alabama, on November 14, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles) starts at 7 a.m. and the 5K at 7:15, which puts both fields on the road early and keeps the event compact enough to be done with well before midday.

Two distances, two very different jobs. The half is a distance you commit to in advance: about 12 weeks of steady mileage, one long run a week rising toward 11 miles, and a genuine two-week taper so you arrive fresh rather than merely trained. The 5K asks for far less notice and works nicely as a hard effort at the end of a long season, or as a first race if you have never pinned on a bib. With only 15 minutes between the starts, expect both fields to be on course together for much of the morning.
