About

Dalton Veteran's Day Road Race is held in Dalton, Georgia, on November 7, 2026, and all three distances start together at 7:30 a.m.: a 5-mile race, a 5K over 3.1 miles, and a 2K. The shared start makes for one big field that splits as the shorter distances peel off, and it gets everyone finished early in the morning.

The 5-miler is the interesting one here, long enough to require real pacing discipline but short enough to run at close to threshold effort throughout. A base of around 20 miles a week with one weekly tempo run prepares it well. The 5K is the standard entry point, and the 2K is short enough for children or for anyone wanting to take part without training. A 7:30 a.m. gun means an early warm-up.
