Course & Travel Notes

The Propellers & Pavement 5K takes place in Mount Sterling, Kentucky on October 17, 2026, with an early 9:45 AM start, so you'll want to arrive with plenty of time to spare. You'll be running at a modest elevation of 991 feet, and with sunrise at 7:46 AM, you can expect decent lighting conditions right from the start. Plan to fly into Blue Grass Airport (about 36 miles away) and budget time for the drive to the venue.
