Run the Runway 5K set for Baxter County Airport on Oct. 24

The Run the Runway 5K is scheduled for Oct. 24 at Baxter County Airport, giving members of the public a rare chance to run a lap around the facility.

A public airport run

The event is named the Run the Runway 5K. Its central feature is public access to a route around Baxter County Airport, an opportunity that is not part of the airport’s usual public experience.

The race distance is 5 kilometers, or about 3.1 miles. The event’s announced date is Oct. 24.

What participants can expect

The defining feature of the event is the airport setting. Rather than taking place solely on ordinary public streets or trails, the Run the Runway 5K will bring runners onto airport grounds for a lap around the facility.

That makes the event notable for residents who want to see Baxter County Airport from a different perspective. The opportunity is temporary and tied to the scheduled race date.
