RAD Half Marathon & 10k

A fast, point-to-point race through the best parts of Asheville's River Arts District (RAD) on June 14, 2026.

06/17/2026

Big things happened at the RAD Half Marathon & 10K presented by Hunter Subaru!

Three course records fell, with Noah Allison setting a new Half Marathon record (1:11:03), James Quattlebaum breaking the 10K record (29:46), and Kelsey Harrington establishing a new women's 10K record (35:22). Incredible performances all around!

We also celebrated a fantastic group of new Appalachian Trilogy Finishers. They’ve completed three half marathons in just over three months! This takes dedication, grit, and consistency, and we're proud of every runner who earned their series medal!

Congratulations to all who made race day one to remember! 👏

Relentless heat.
Unmatched determination.
This was the 2026 RAD Half Marathon & 10K presented by Hunter Subaru.

The temperatures were 🔥, but the energy was even HOTTER!
You all showed up, dug deep, encouraged each other, dumped cups of water over your heads, chased PRs, changed goals, high-fived strangers, and refused to quit. 💪

The RAD Half Marathon & 10K presented by Hunter Subaru wasn't about perfect conditions...it was about grit, community, and proving that this running family can handle just about anything.

A BIG congratulations to everyone who crossed the finish line today! And to all the runners that finished all three events in the Appalachian Trilogy this weekend. 🏅 What an incredible accomplishment!!! 👏

And because events like this take a village, thank you to the City of Asheville, our law enforcement, medical teams, course marshals, and the amazing volunteers who worked behind the scenes to keep everyone safe. And to all of this weekend’s race sponsors and vendors, thank you 🙏.

Thank you to Hi-Wire Brewing for hosting another epic post-race celebration 🍻 and to everyone who helped us support the RADA Foundation.

Rest up, recover well, and wear those medals proudly. You earned them.
