2026 KSU College of Engineering Pi Mile Run

The KSU College of Engineering Pi Mile Run takes place on the Kansas State University campus in Manhattan, Kansas. This athletic event follows a specific distance of 3.14 miles, reflecting the mathematical constant pi. The course winds through the university grounds, starting and ending near the Carl R. Ice College of Engineering facilities on Platt Street.

This running race utilizes chip timing to provide participants with accurate results. The event serves as a benefit for activities within the Carl R. Ice College of Engineering at K-State. Participants receive a commemorative shirt as part of their registration fee.

Upon completing the 3.14 mile course, attendees are served pie and ice cream. Awards are presented to the top finishers across various categories. A unique post-race activity allows those who finish at the front of the pack the opportunity to participate in a lighthearted tradition of throwing a pie at a college professor.
