Project Running Fearless Experience-Chattanooga Edition

Project Running Fearless Experience-Chattanooga Edition is held in Chattanooga, Tennessee, on January 16, 2027. One distance is on the program, a 5K on road, and it starts at 8:00 AM.

A single-distance 5K in mid-January is an easy race to slot into a winter of training. If you already run regularly, treat it as a hard, honest effort over roughly 20 to 30 minutes and use the result to set your training paces for the months ahead. If you are starting out, the 5K is the classic first target: three sessions a week over six to eight weeks, mixing easy running with a little walking where you need it, will get you to the line prepared. Either way, warm up before an 8:00 AM start in winter, because cold legs take longer to find a rhythm than you expect.
