10 Miles 3.1 Miles 6.2 Miles Run Walk

We are very pleased to be returning to Mt. Brilliant Farm for The Perfect 10 in 2026!

The Perfect 10 Miler and 10K is scheduled for Saturday, March 28th, 2026 at 9:00 am at Mt. Brilliant Farm in northern Fayette County. This race is a fundraiser and all proceeds will benefit Surgery on Sunday, Inc., a local nonprofit that provides outpatient surgeries free of charge to income-eligible, uninsured individuals who do not qualify for federal or state assistance. To learn more about this unique program, please visit their website at www.surgeryonsunday.org

This 10 Mile and 10K races are great preparation for many area half and full marathons like Run The Bluegrass, Kentucky Derby Festival, Flying Pig, and Horse Capital and the run will be entirely on paved surfaces through picturesque and historic Mt. Brilliant Farm. Continuing in 2026! The 5K race was a great success in 2025 and we are keeping it for 2026 for folks that want to experience the beauty of Mt. Brilliant Farm, but prefer a shorter distance run/walk.

  • Water will be available at hydration stations along the courses. See Course Maps for details.

  • All events will be chip timed. NOTE: The 5K will start between 10 and 15 minutes after the 10M & 10K start.

  • All registrants will receive a long-sleeved performance race shirt.

  • Overall and age group awards will be presented for the 10 Miler and 10K.

  • Overall awards only will be presented for the 5K.

  • Walkers are welcome for the 10K and 5K.

  • Please adhere to the pace limit of 15 min/mile for the 10 Miler.

  • The course must be clear by 11:30 am so the farm can return to normal operation.

    5K ROUTE MAP

    10K ROUTE MAP

    The 10K ROUTE will just do the 5K out and back route twice. There will be a turnaround just in front of the 5K finish line with a water station at that point. 10K participants will turn at that point and run the same 5K course a 2nd time.

    NEW FOR 2026 --- We've added a 2 Mile Walk/Ruck

    CPT Elliott set off on Sunday, July 30, 2023, intending to complete a ruck march in preparation for an upcoming tryout with Special Mission Unit. Two miles into his run/ruck, he has hit and killed in a hit-and-run. This year, we will be changing Run, White, & Blue’s “1-mile fun run/walk” to 2 miles in tribute and encourage all who would like to honor Alan and other service members lost in the line of duty to complete the 2 miles carrying a rucksack.

    The Susan Bradley-Cox Tri for Sight will be hosted by The Club at UK’s Spindletop Hall, on Sunday, September 13, 2026. The USAT-sanctioned event features a 400-meter swim in a heated, outdoor pool with a time trial start on 15-second intervals. The duathletes will instead be treated to a relatively flat, fast and scenic 2-mile run behind and beside Spindletop. Both Tri and Du events will then transition to a 12.6-mile bike course on low-traffic roads in the beautiful horse country located just east of the Kentucky Horse Park. The Tri and Du events both finish with a 3 mile run.

    The aqua-bike will have the same format as the triathlon for the swim and bike stages. ATTENTION: Aqua-bike athletes timing will end upon re-entering the transition area after the bike stage.

    Aqua-run athletes will start the swim once the last triathlete/aqua-biker is out of the pool and then do the same swim course, followed by a quick transition and out onto the 3-mile run course.

    Must register by Wednesday, July 29, 2026 to ensure you receive your desired shirt size.
