Nature Run 5K/10K at Loretto Motherhouse

Kentucky State Police Post 15 - Columbia presents this 5K evening run/walk on the banks of beautiful Green River Lake. This chip-timed event will be a high-energy event that will include a DJ and music. There will also be lights, glowsticks, and State Police cruisers throughout the course to illuminate the evening. The race will start and end at the Green River State Park Campground pavilion. Come join us at this rare evening, 5K, and have an opportunity to support children in our community.

All proceeds from this event will benefit the KSP Post 15 “Shop with a Trooper” program. This program allows less fortunate children in our 11-county post area the opportunity to go Christmas shopping with Troopers for clothing items and toys. Troopers take children shopping who otherwise may not receive any gifts for Christmas. While shopping, children interact with Troopers and develop a positive relationship with them. The "Shop with a Trooper" program operates solely from community donations. Several designs of KSP supporter t-shirts and hats will be available for purchase at the event.

Run For The Chorus 5K

Saturday, August 8, 2026

Race starts at 9 AM | Packet pickup & race day registration opens at 8 AM

Severns Valley Baptist Church – Elizabethtown, KY

This isn’t your typical Saturday morning 5K.

Join us for the Run For The Chorus 5K—a fun, music-filled run that supports the Heart of Kentucky Chorus, a local nonprofit community chorus right here in Elizabethtown.

We’ll kick things off with a few songs from the chorus to set the tone, and as you make your way through the course, you’ll be cheered on by live singers stationed along the route. Seriously—live music while you run! It’s the kind of motivation you didn’t know you needed.

The race starts and finishes in the Severns Valley Baptist Church parking lot, and you’ll be supported every step of the way by our chorus members and volunteers.

If you love running, live music, or just want to support a great cause in a fun way, we’d love to have you there.

Come run (or walk) with us and be part of something truly one-of-a-kind!
