Local, to Kentucky, Races and Events (If you have a race in the area, including surrounding states, let me know and I will post about it)

Running groups are a great way to get to know people but also a great way to help you progress and get out and run.  If you are in the Elizabethtown KY area check out the Running Soles Group and if you are closer to Campbellsville check out the Campbellsville Running  Club.   Have another local running group in KY let me know and I will list it.

Check out these Race Companies for local races: Good Times Even Services & Central Kentucky Race Management.  For trail and Ultra races in Kentucky and Virginia check out Next Opportunity Events

The Lake Cumberland 1/2 Marathon (Somerset, KY) has gone virtual and thus you have from August 1st till Sept 12th to complete the distance

The 45(ish) mile Breaks Ultra will take place Sept 12th - as of now the race has permission to take place

If you want to check out a great trail but do not want to do an ultra try the Rugged Red Half Marathon in the Red River Gorge, KY on Sept 26, 2020 - Register here - No registration yet - decision to be made after July 15th. - NOTE, as of 6/30/20 this race has been canceled and made a virtual race

Come run the Officer Daniel Ellis Memorial 5K on November 7, 2020 - as of today this is the new race date

Looking for other races around the world, here is where I get most of the ones I list: ahotuMarathons (covers the world), American Trail Running Assoc.  (Mostly US but does have other races on the list),  Running  in the USA & Trail Runner Magazine
