5k Legacy Run
The event on June 7, 2026 in Ellettsville, Indiana combines a community 5k run/walk with a separate celebration and banquet at the conclusion of a high school track season. The venue address is 7508 N. Woodall Rd, Ellettsville, IN 47448.
Options include a standalone 5K run/walk, a celebration only, and a combined option that pairs the 5k with the celebration. The standard 5k registration fee is $15 and covers a shirt and a commemorative finisher medal. The celebration is listed with no registration fee. Donations collected at the event will support the development of a new cross-country course.
The gathering honors a long-time coach who is retiring after a multi-decade coaching career that includes a long record of team achievements in cross-country and track. Noted achievements include multiple sectional, regional, and semi-state titles in cross-country, two state cross-country titles, and numerous sectional and regional titles in track, along with individual and relay state champions in track. The celebration is framed as a post-season recognition and a chance for former runners, coaches, parents, and administrators connected to the program to attend.
The event structure separates the competitive 5k from the celebration to allow the celebration to function more as a lunch and to accommodate attendees who come only for the celebration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
