Alan Kurre Elliott Memorial Student Award” for undergraduate students in the Kinesiology Department at the University of Kentucky who embody Alan’s outstanding character. (Read more below)

5K ROUTE MAP

10K ROUTE MAP

The 10K ROUTE will just do the 5K out and back route twice.  There will be a turnaround just in front of the 5K finish line with a water station at that point.  10K participants will turn at that point and run the same 5K course a 2nd time.

NEW FOR 2026 --- We've added a 2 Mile Walk/Ruck
CPT Elliott set off on Sunday, July 30, 2023, intending to complete a ruck march in preparation for an upcoming tryout with Special Mission Unit. Two miles into his run/ruck, he has hit and killed in a hit-and-run. This year, we will be changing Run, White, & Blue’s “1-mile fun run/walk” to 2 miles in tribute and encourage all who would like to honor Alan and other service members lost in the line of duty to complete the 2 miles carrying a rucksack.
