About This Race
The Anniston Runners Club (ARC) and our members invite you to our premier annual event, the historic Woodstock 5K and Kidstock 1K! The 2026 race's RRCA championship event designation is TBA. Woodstock is a fun and healthy community event where more than 1000 runners and walkers come to shake their tail feathers! Go ahead and mark your calendar for August 1st, 2026, for one of the oldest continuous footraces in the southeast!
Woodstock is an exciting 5K event on Woodstock Avenue that's fun for the whole family, with a relaxing post-race celebration featuring local vendors and awards! It has been over 10 years since the course record was broken by male and female runners. Any individual who breaks the course record (male or female divisions) will receive an additional $500! That is a potential of $1000 total for the overall winners! For more information on awards and other race details, visit the WOODSTOCK WEBPAGE.
Don't forget to check out our ever-so-popular Team Challenge! Team runners have a chance to win a cash prize for the team with the most participants and for the fastest male, female, and coed team.
Please enjoy the hospitality Annistonians and Alabamians are famous for. We promise you won't leave Woodstock disappointed - our runners, volunteers, and community guarantee it!
