Description

Get ready for the 10th Annual Renfro Rock 'N Run Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk...in person or at home

The Renfro Rock N Run Half Marathon has a tradition of being one of Kentucky’s most unique and fun races, and we can't wait to have you back on site to enjoy the atmosphere.

Renfro Valley, Kentucky, home of the world-famous entertainment center and the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame, is known for its music, from Bluegrass to classic country to rock. Rockcastle County is home to a rock-solid, enthusiastic bunch who has taken to running and dare you to keep up. At the Rock N Run, they share the road, and their countryside, with you.

You’ll dash past rustic cabins, trot alongside a beautiful lake, and pass through some of Kentucky’s prettiest farmscapes. 

Part of the Rockcastle Regional Countywide Stride run/walk series, and winner of the Jackson Healthcare Hospital Charitable Services Program of Excellence Award.

So, come on, y’all, Rock N Run!
