The PTI 5k/10k Run on the Runway will take place on April 3, 2027, on the airport’s 9,000-foot parallel runway. This certified run benefits The Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC, Greensboro Urban Ministry, and Open Door Ministries of High Point.
Everyone is invited to run or walk on the runway. The flat and smooth surface is ideal for achieving a personal best time, and the course is wheelchair accessible and baby stroller friendly. This event offers a unique opportunity to get a close-up view of the airport and runways, available only once a year.
Due to the secure location and safety reasons, bikes, rollerblades, and inline skates are not allowed. Additionally, dogs and other pets are strictly prohibited.
