Haunted 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Bowling Green, KY

Haunted 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Bowling Green, KY is held in Bowling Green, Kentucky, on October 24, 2026, with all three distances leaving at 8 a.m.: a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 10K and a 5K. Prizes go to the fastest times and to the best costumes, so there is a reason to be creative with what you pin your bib to. Every finisher receives a medal, and the field around you makes for a motivating morning.

Three road distances off a single gun means you can enter alongside friends at very different fitness levels and still share a start line. The 5K suits a first race, the 10K a runner building volume, and the half a fall goal. If the 13.1 is yours, work backward 12 weeks and protect the weekly long run above everything else. Costume runners should test the outfit on a training run first, because chafing does not care about Halloween.
