Run for the Rosies 5K
The Rosie Foundation hosts the ninth annual Run for the Rosies 5K in Franklin, Kentucky, on September 12, 2026. The in-person gathering takes place at The Barn at Bethel Grove in rural Simpson County and includes a 5K Run and a separate 5K Walk category.
Registration opens May 30, 2026. Registration for the in-person run and walk closes July 30, 2026, while virtual registration remains open through September 12, 2026. Entry fees are $20 for the in-person run and walk and $30 for the virtual 5K. Team registrations are available for groups of 10 or more at a discounted price.
Walker entries must keep one foot on the ground at all times; running is not permitted for walkers. Prizes will be awarded to the Top Male and Top Female Overall and to the Top 3 males and females in each age group in both the runner and walker divisions. All live and virtual participants who register by August 10 will receive both a shirt and a medal. Several sponsorship tiers are offered to support the event and the foundation.
Proceeds from registration fees and sponsorships support The Rosie Foundation's work providing care packages and financial gifts to people facing glioblastoma and other cancers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
