New Year 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Stillwater, OK

New Year 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Stillwater, OK is held in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on January 2, 2027. The 5K, the 10K and the half marathon (13.1 miles) all start at 8:00 a.m., so whichever distance you choose the morning follows the same schedule. With three options on one gun, a household can split by ability and still finish within the same window.

Opening the year with a half marathon works best if you kept running through December, because 13.1 miles on January 2 rewards continuity and punishes a month off. If the distance would be new, do not enter it for next week: count ten to twelve weeks of building with a long run in each, and take the 10K for now. For runners already training through the winter, this is a low-stakes way to see where the pace sits before the spring races arrive.
