Greensboro Distilling Speakeasy 5k 2026

The Greensboro Distilling Speakeasy 5K runs through downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, starting at Greensboro Distilling Co. and SouthEnd Brewing. It follows a USA Track & Field-certified 5K course, suitable for runners seeking a measured road result, walkers, and families enjoying an evening event. The night start is a key feature, allowing participants to run city streets under downtown lights rather than in the peak summer heat. The race embraces its speakeasy theme post-finish. Registration includes a custom shirt, a Speakeasy finisher medal, race photography, themed awards, and two drink tickets for those of legal drinking age. The post-race party features jazz music, cocktails made with Fainting Goat Spirits, and beer from SouthEnd Brewing. Options for under-21 runners, economy entry, virtual participation, spectators, and chariot runners and riders broaden the event beyond a standard 5K field. It is also part of Trivium Racing's North Carolina Running Series and the North Carolina Road Mega Medal Series, where medals from the races connect into a pyramid-shaped set.
