Racing in Kentucky
Kentucky runs a year-round race calendar, so there’s almost always a race near you. The calendar is busiest in November, December, and April, with races most often held in Bowling Green, Louisville, Lexington, and Richmond.
Races in Kentucky run from the Appalachian Mountains in the east to the rolling Bluegrass region around Lexington and the flatter Mississippi lowlands in the far west. That spread covers steep mountain trail races, rolling horse-country road courses, and flat river-bottom routes.
Conditions vary widely by region across Kentucky, so weather lives where it’s accurate — each race page shows its typical race-day high, low, and rain chance from NOAA climate normals for that venue and date.
