Event summary
Get ready for an exhilarating day of running and community spirit at the 48th United Community Reedy River Run on Saturday, April 18, 2026, in the heart of Greenville! This iconic event, known for its rich history as one of the oldest road races in the South, features both a thrilling 10K and a spirited 5K race. Runners will embark on a scenic journey starting from Greenville's vibrant Main Street, taking in the breathtaking sights of downtown, Cleveland Park, Cancer Survivors Park, and the picturesque Falls Park.
The 10K course is particularly special, as it crosses the beautiful Reedy River six times and culminates in a downhill finish on Falls Drive, right near the United Community headquarters. With a cap of 1,500 participants for the 10K and 1,000 for the 5K, this event promises an exciting atmosphere for competitive runners and casual joggers alike. Participants in the 10K will receive commemorative Finishers medals and Age Group awards, while the 5K offers a fun, less competitive experience. Don’t forget to prepare for staggered “wave” starts based on your Estimated Finishing Time to ensure an enjoyable race day! Mark your calendars

Organiser's Description
The United Community Reedy River Run 10K is one of the oldest road races in the south and will be celebrating its 48th running on April 18, 2026. With the start on Greenville's famous Main Street, you will take a tour of downtown and beautiful Cleveland, Cancer Survivors and Falls Parks. The 10K course crosses the namesake Reedy River six times and both the 10K and 5K races will have a downhill finish on Falls Drive near the United Community headquarters.
The event was previously the 2017 and 2021RRCA South Carolina State 10K Championship and the 2019 RRCA Southern Region 10K Championship.
There is also a 5K run which starts on S. Main St and uses the same finish line as the 10K on Falls Street.
Our 10K will be limited to 1,500 participants and the 5K to 1000 participants. The 10K will once again have staggered "wave" starts and waves will be determined by the participant's Estimated Finishing Time. So, please enter your EFT during the registration process. The 10K will once again have commemorative Finishers medals and Age Group awards.
The 5K is our less competitive run, but may also have starting waves to help spread out the field and will not have Finisher medals or Age Group awards.
Please be advised, DUE TO THE VERY EARLY START TIMES THERE WILL NOT BE RACE DAY PACKET PICKUP. You may have someone pick up your race packet for you (please provide your approval to the person picking up for you by text to their phone to be presented).
