The BeKind 5K starts at 8:30 AM on September 12, 2026, in New Albany, Indiana, giving you a reasonable window to arrive and settle before the gun. The race takes place along the Ohio River Greenway between miles 1.01 and 5.99, offering a 5K route through that corridor. Entry costs $25. New Albany sits directly across the river from Louisville, Kentucky, making it accessible for athletes traveling from the broader region. If you're flying in the night before or driving several hours to the race, the mid-morning start allows flexibility without requiring a pre-dawn wake-up. Plan your hotel stay accordingly to get to the Ohio River Greenway venue with time to spare for parking, bib pickup, and a proper warm-up.
