Presenting the 2025 GenesisHR Battlegreen Run

REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

This annual tradition is celebrated by the local community for both the spirit of the event and the incredible fundraising achieved by participants for local nonprofits.

We will run as a community on Sunday, November 2nd @ 12:15 PM to raise money for a number of deserving nonprofits.  Choose from a 5K walk, 2k walk, 5K run or (almost)10K run….OK it’s only 9.857k…we just want to start and end in the same place. If you prefer to maintain social distancing or just can’t make it to Lexington on race day you can participate virtually.

We need volunteers to guide runners through their route, work at water stations and serve food to participants. Volunteering qualifies for school volunteer service credit (4 hours) and you will receive a free race volunteer t-shirt!
