Where else can you stand in the geographic center of the state, watch bourbon flow and barrels grown, experience some of the world's most unique sights and events and eat until you're about to bust?  Come feel the beat in Lebanon, the true Heart of Kentucky!

 

Featuring a 5K road race and a 10K bike ride, this great family event will get you energized for spring.

The 5K is open to serious competitors, joggers, walkers and families. The 10K bike ride is just for fun but the scenery is great and the route meanders past the Lebanon National Cemetery.

The paved course is mainly flat but it has a lengthy incline at one portion, a small hill at the end and a portion runs through the South Lebanon Industrial Park. It is well marked and begins and ends at Graham Memorial Park.

Times are given at the 1- and 2-mile marks, two water stations will be available along the route and a small breakfast is available at the finish line. There is traffic control and the Marion County Ambulance Service follows the 5K.

Parents must accompany their children throughout the event and all bike ride participants must wear a helmet.

Participants can register online here or by mail or in person at the Lebanon Tourist & Convention Commission office, 239 N. Spalding Ave. Ste. 200, Lebanon KY 40033 or the Community Learning Center, 214 N. Harrison Street, Lebanon KY 40033 or the Marion County Extension Office, 415 Fairground Road, Lebanon KY 40033.
