Fifth Annual Run the Runway 5K - AGS

Sign up to run on Augusta Regional Airport's runway during the 2026 Run the Runway, sponsored by ADP! This unique 5K and Kids Fun Run is sure to give you an unforgettable running experience unlike any other 5K in the area! 

AGS strives to be a strong community partner in unique and impactful ways. This year, AGS will host its 5th Annual “Run the Runway” event, benefiting America's Warrior Partnership, an Augusta-based nonprofit organization that partners with communities to prevent veteran suicide.

With our strong military presence in the Augusta River Region, we selected this nonprofit due to its commitment to improving the quality of life for veterans and to end veteran suicide by empowering local communities to serve them proactively and holistically before a crisis occurs.

Adult Registration is $35.00. Children 8-12 are $30.00. Children 7 and under are $15.00. Children 7 and under will be able to participate in a fun run and will receive a t-shirt as well. Must register by March 1, 2026, to guarantee a race t-shirt.
