Join us for this 3rd Annual race that celebrate the life & legacy of CPT. Alan Kurre Elliott!
Saturday, July 25, 2026, at 8:00am at Coldstream Park in North Lexington
We race to make a difference and honor a life well lived. The “CPT. Alan Kurre Elliott Memorial Run” is more than just a race; it is a tribute to a remarkable person, and an opportunity to give back. All proceeds will fund the “CPT. Alan Kurre Elliott Memorial Student Award” for undergraduate students in the Kinesiology Department at the University of Kentucky who embody Alan’s outstanding character. (Read more below)
RACE FEATURES:
- Flat/fast 5K and 10K courses at scenic Coldstream Park in North Lexington
- Commemorative super soft poly/cotton T-shirts
- Patriotic themed race
- Awards for Top 3 M/F Overall and Top 3 M/F in 10-year age groups (5K & 10K)
- Free Race Photos (Thanks Ruby Cline-Eaton!)
- Social teams to enhance your race experience (Prize for the largest team)
- Convenient race morning packet pickup
- 5K run/walk, 10K run (chip timed), 2 Mile Ruck/Walk (untimed) and virtual option
- Food, fun, music and fellowship for a great cause
PACKET PICKUP Our PPU plans will be announced closer to the race date. We will definitely have race morning packet pickup at Coldstream Park from 6:45-8am.
The 10K ROUTE will just do the 5K out and back route twice. There will be a turnaround just in front of the 5K finish line with a water station at that point. 10K participants will turn at that point and run the same 5K course a 2nd time.
NEW FOR 2026 --- We've added a 2 Mile Walk/Ruck
CPT Elliott set off on Sunday, July 30, 2023, intending to complete a ruck march in preparation for an upcoming tryout with Special Mission Unit. Two miles into his run/ruck, he has hit and killed in a hit-and-run. This year, we will be changing Run, White, & Blue’s “1-mile fun run/walk” to 2 miles in tribute and encourage all who would like to honor Alan and other service members lost in the line of duty to complete the 2 miles carrying a rucksack.
