Get ready for an exhilarating day of running at the Viking 5K, 10K, & Half Marathon, taking place on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the stunning Jamison Park in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The event kicks off at 8:00 AM, promising a vibrant atmosphere filled with enthusiastic runners and spectators. Participants can choose from three exciting race distances: the 5K, which features a scenic out-and-back course, perfect for runners of all levels; the 10K, which challenges athletes to tackle the course twice; and the Half Marathon, where dedicated runners will complete the out-and-back route four times.

With packet pickup starting 30 minutes prior to the race, all participants must register in advance on RunSignup, as there will be no on-site registration. Each finisher will receive a medal to commemorate their achievement, and there will be opportunities for awards, including the popular best costume contest.
