About this race

Wrap up the annual Breathitt County Honey Festival by coming out to participate in the 2026 Honey Run, presented by the Breathitt County Cooperative Extension Office and Juniper Health! There will be a Kids Fun Run before the start of the race, and then you can join us for a 2-mile walk or 5k/10k run in the beautiful Lakeside neighborhood, by Panbowl Lake.  We hope you’ll join us!
