About this race
🎉 Welcome to the Renfro Rock 'N Run
We're getting ready for the 14th Annual Renfro Rock 'N Run Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk! The Renfro Rock 'N Run Half Marathon has a tradition of being one of Kentucky’s most unique and fun races.
🎶 About Renfro Valley
- Location: Renfro Valley, Kentucky, home of the world-famous entertainment center and the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame.
- Music: Known for its music, from Bluegrass to classic country to rock.
- Community: Rockcastle County is home to rock-solid, enthusiastic folks who like to run.
- Challenge: They dare you to keep up at the Rock 'N Run, sharing the road and their countryside with you.
🏞️ Race Experience
You’ll dash past rustic cabins, trot alongside a beautiful lake, and pass through some of Kentucky’s prettiest farmscapes. And this year, we invite you to don your best 80s music costume - think Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, Def Leppard, Reba McEntire. It's all part of the fun!
