The Cottey Comets 5k
About this race
Join us for the 2026 Cottey Comets 5K Run/Walk on the beautiful campus of Cottey College in Nevada, Missouri! Whether you're chasing a personal best, walking with friends and family, or showing your support for Cottey Athletics, this event is a great way to kick off your Saturday while making a difference. Participants will enjoy a scenic course through campus, receive a commemorative race t-shirt and swag bag (if registered by Friday, September 11), and earn a finisher medal while supplies last. Can't make it to campus? You can still support the cause by sponsoring a Cottey student-athlete or team. All proceeds benefit the Cottey College Athletic Department, helping provide outstanding opportunities for Comet student-athletes. We look forward to seeing you at the starting line on Saturday, September 26, 2026!
