Eagle Strut 5K Run/Walk 2026
About the Event
The senior class at Franklin County High School in Rocky Mount, VA proudly announces the 16th annual Eagle Strut Race to take place Saturday September 12, 2026 at 8:00 AM. The Eagle Strut is a 5K race that takes runners around the beautiful and historic town of Rocky Mount. The 5K course is a perfect introduction to running for novice runners while still providing enough of a challenge to keep advanced runners interested. Proceeds for the race help fund the FCHS Class of 2027 in order to help offset senior activity costs and provide aid to our seniors who are most in need. No refunds will be given. Shirt size can only be guaranteed if registering before 8/14!
Packet pickup will be the morning of the race, September 12 at 6:30 AM and end at 7:45 AM. Participants who wish to sign up on the morning of the event can still sign up on RunSignUp!
Participants should park in the Law parking lot (between the high school and the Rocky Mount Smokehouse).
A special THANK YOU to our 2026 race sponsors seen below!
