Description
Bluegrass Runners is a non-profit organization based in Lexington, KY, devoted to promoting fitness, fellowship, and fun for runners of all ages and abilities. Every Thanksgiving, we put on the Thoroughbred Classic 5K and Kay Collins Memorial Mile, raising thousands of dollars each year for local charities.
This year Bluegrass Runners will be putting on our second Bluegrass Mile at the Redmile race track on Friday October 5th at 7pm. Come run the track with us!
You can connect with other runners and walkers through our weekly club runs and social events. We also offer race registration discounts and prizes through our Grand Prix Series. Visit our website for more information.
Bluegrass Runners has also partnered with Team Red, White & Blue, a non-profit that connects veterans to their community through physical and social activity. Team RWB members who meet veteran status are eligible to join Bluegrass Runners or renew their membership at a discounted rate.
