About

JKL AERO 5K is scheduled in Raleigh, North Carolina, on December 19, 2026. A single 5K is on the program, listed with a 5:00 a.m. start, so this is a race to check the final details on before you set your alarm. One distance, one wave, and the whole thing wrapped up long before the rest of the city is moving.

Very early starts change your preparation more than your training. Eat something small and familiar rather than a full breakfast, allow extra warm-up time because your body is still in night mode, and bring a headlamp or reflective layer in case any part of the route is unlit. As for fitness, a month of easy mileage with one weekly set of 400-meter repeats is all a 5K requires.
