Race on the Runway & Planes and Plows Festival
October 5 @ 8:30 am - 7:00 pm
Race on the Runway offers:
- The 1-Mile “Taxi Trot” Fun Run ($20)
- The Flight Deck 5k ($30)
- and The Tarmac 10k ($40)
Whether you are a seasoned runner or just looking for a fun way to experience Currituck Regional Airport, Race on the Runway will deliver. Runners and walkers welcome! We recommend that strollers and dogs (leash required) start at the back. If you don’t have a pup and want to walk one, let us know and the local animal shelter will provide a friendly pooch, that will certainly enjoy the experience with you.
We have a timing company for the race and while these are non-USATF certified courses this year, your results will be sent via text/email with fully searchable results. You can print a certificate from the timing website, and you will also receive a finisher’s medal at the finish line. There is also finish line video and a live results TV. Finish line video is posted to YouTube and linked to each runner’s individual results. See the event website for registration details and course maps.
This isn’t the only event of the day — stay after the race to enjoy the free Planes and Plows Festival which will host multiple vendors, games, food trucks, plane rides and more. Showers are available for racers at the Cooperative Extension, if you would like to rinse off before planes and plows.
