Connies Courage 5K Race

Connies Courage 5K Race is run in Soperton, Georgia, on November 14, 2026, with the 5K (3.1 miles) starting at 8:00 a.m. It is the only distance on the program, so the event is over early and the logistics are about as simple as a race morning gets.

An early gun rewards a little preparation the night before: lay out your kit, plan to arrive 45 minutes ahead and use half of that on an easy jog and a few short strides. Small-town 5Ks tend to have modest fields, which means clear road ahead of you and honest splits rather than a crowded first mile. Four weeks of steady running, with one weekly session of five one-minute efforts, prepares most people to race it properly.
