THE 2027 FROSTBITE
THE 2027 FROSTBITE is an annual road race in Starkville, Mississippi, presented by Chick-Fil-A of Starkville. The event began more than 41 years ago and offers multiple race distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The course begins and ends on Main Street and passes through the Cotton District, the Mississippi State University campus, and Starkville's Historic District. Course maps and race photos from prior years are provided by the organizers.
Chip timing is provided by Stearn's Race Timing. The half marathon has a three hour time limit. Awards are available for pickup near the chip timing tent at the finish area.
There are three water stations on the course at approximately mile 4, mile 6, and mile 11. This layout means 5K registrants do not have access to a water station on course, 10K registrants have access to two stations, and half marathon registrants pass five stations because of out-and-back segments. Race day packet pickup is available at the event site.
Participants receive moisture wicking shirts, custom medals, race souvenir cups, and custom swag bags. The event supports the TK Martin Center and lists several local sponsors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
