About the Event

The 50th Annual Boys & Girls Club Selma Railroad Run 5K is Saturday, September 19th, 2026 at 8:30am. This 5K road course is a flat and fast USATF certified course.

The 5K registration fee is $25 per person as an early bird deal until 8/20/26. Fee is $35 after 8/20/26. An awesome short-sleeve Railroad Run race t-shirt is included FREE with registration, but we can only guarantee a size for those registered before 8/31/26.

All participants have the option to be timed with a race bib, but recreational non-timed participants are very welcome and will have a great time. Only timed participants will receive an official record of their finish time. DOGS ARE WELCOME - must be kept on a leash at all times. And don't forget about the Caboose Run: at approx. 8:45am we will host a 1/2 Mile Kids Caboose Run from the starting line just after the registered runners take off - no need to register for that particular event.

Awards will be given to the top runners in age and gender categories, plus overall male and female winners. Categories are ages 6-13, 14-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 and 60+.

More information about shirt and race packet pickup will be sent before the race.

Corporate Team and Group Team options are encouraged and available.
