Event overview

The RYR Endurance Race Weekend takes place November 15-16, 2025 in Owensboro, KY. The weekend includes multiple events: marathon (two formats), half marathon, 50K ultra, 10K, 5K, and a combined "Double the Fun" 5K+10K option. Both marathon courses are USATF certified and listed as Boston qualifiers (KY24004DJR and KY24006DJR). The Saturday marathon includes a casual option with a generous 9-hour time limit; the competitive marathon on Sunday uses a shorter time limit.

All race participants receive a shirt and all finishers receive a finisher medal. Proceeds from the event are designated for the Wendell Foster Center.

Course and logistics

All races start and finish at Horse Fork Creek Park, 3005 Fairview Drive, Owensboro, KY. The courses run on a multi-loop out-and-back asphalt greenway that follows a creek, passes two lakes, and is lined with trees. The route has minimal elevation change, is spectator friendly, and places tables near the start for athlete-staged nutrition.

  • Marathon - 9 loops
  • Half marathon - 5 loops
  • 50K (ultra) - 11 loops
  • 10K - 2 loops
  • 5K - 1 loop

On-course support includes a midpoint aid station with water, sports drink, and gels. GU gels (vanilla and salted caramel) and Tailwind endurance fuel are available for half marathon, marathon, and 50K participants. Horse Fork Creek Park offers over 400 parking spaces and gear check is not required because start/finish are adjacent to parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
