In the Cut 5K
In the Cut 5K is a community running and walking event scheduled for Saturday, September 5, 2026, at Nankin Mills - Historic Hines Drive Park. The event centers on completing a 5K distance and on encouraging healthier living within the local community.
The event was created by a group of men who sought to move their community toward healthier habits through running and walking. Organizers have partnered with health care groups and local personal training and fitness facilities to support that objective. The event originally began as a fun run that started at Chene Park and passed through the Dequindre Cut Greenway; the race moved to Historic Hines Drive Park in 2022 because of increasing costs associated with holding the run at the downtown riverfront location.
Organizers state they will follow applicable city, state and federal public health guidelines related to COVID-19. Registration information is noted as opening soon and volunteers and sponsors are listed as part of the event structure. Results and a course gallery are maintained by the event team.
The presentation is focused on community health partnerships, a short urban recreational course history, and the single distance format of the 5K event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
