Join us for the 1/2 marathon, 10k, 5k, or Virtual! We have a distance for everyone! All races start and finish at Cave City Park at 9 am. OK Plus Timing Service will be there to provide chip timing.
About the course: The first 3/4 mile is pavement before it turns to a roller coaster of scenic gravel roads. The 5k and 10k are out-and-back routes. The 1/2 marathon goes out, and you will do a “lollipop” style out and back. Aid stations will be along the course. This course is difficult and challenging with rolling hills.
Unique finisher awards and the top 3 Male/Female awards will be given for each race. The deadline to guarantee a t-shirt and finisher medal will be March 18, 2026. Post-race snacks will be provided for participants at the finish line.
All funds received through registration will cover race expenses and benefit the Cave City Police Department and the Cave City Volunteer Fire Department. With the support of race participants and local sponsors, for the last four years, Cave City Easter Run has donated $18,000 to the Cave City Police Department and Cave City Volunteer Fire Department.
Virtual race participants will receive a race shirt and finisher medal!
Early packet pickup will be at the Cave City Park on Friday, April 3th, 4 pm-6 pm.
Packet Pickup and day of registration will be 7-8:45 am on 4/04/26.
