The EXPO 10,000/5k is more than a race: It is Knoxville's oldest and most beloved community running event. In its thirty-third year, it is truly a tradition. Once again construction forces KTC race organizers to devise a new course that will be exciting and challenging. It is the only race that celebrates the family by having mother/son, mother/daughter, father/son, father/daughter, wife/husband, and three generations categories. It is the Knoxville Track Club's event of the year. Come join us at 8:00 am. on Saturday, May 26.
