Course Ninja du parc Vietnam Veterans

Vietnam Veterans Park Ninja Run takes place in Concord, North Carolina, on February 6, 2027. Four distances are on the program, so runners of every profile can find a format that fits: a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 15K (9.3 miles), a 10K (6.2 miles) and a 5K (3.1 miles). The route runs through public parks and past lakes and ponds, giving the event a varied natural setting in the North Carolina piedmont. Start times and elevation gain are not listed.

Having four distances on one morning makes this an easy race to share with friends who are at different points in their training. If you are new to racing, the 5K asks for little more than a few weeks of consistent running; the 10K and 15K reward a bit of tempo work; the half marathon calls for a 10- to 12-week build with a weekly long run stretching toward 10 or 11 miles. Early February in North Carolina usually means a cold start, so plan a longer warm-up and layers you can shed before the gun.
