Charleston Distance Run
The Charleston Distance Run takes place on September 5, 2026, in Charleston, West Virginia. The event uses a course that begins at the West Virginia State Capitol and finishes at the University of Charleston Stadium at Laidley Field. The main course passes through downtown, hillside neighborhoods, and along the riverfront.
The event program includes multiple distances and formats:
- 15 Mile Race scenic but challenging course through the city
- 3 Person 15 Mile Relay three segments of 3, 5, and 7 miles
- 5K Run/Walk flat, fast 5K course
The 15 mile race is open to ages 12 and older. The relay uses the same 15 mile route divided into three segments so teams cover the full distance together. The 5K is described as flat and suitable for both run and walk participants. Event information lists course maps, participant guides, timing and results, and historical results for past editions. The listed start location address is 1900 Kanawha Blvd East, Charleston, WV 25305.
