Bleeding Disorders of Kentucky Hemo Hustle 5K

Bleeding Disorders of Kentucky Hemo Hustle 5K is held in Shelbyville, Kentucky, on November 14, 2026, and the single 5K (3.1 miles) starts at 9:30 a.m. The annual event raises money for Bleeding Disorders of Kentucky, and it is set up so you can either walk it at an easy pace outdoors or go after a personal best. Registration includes a shirt with a new design, medals go to the top male and female finishers, and snacks and refreshments are served at the finish. A playground on site is open to participants once they are done.

A mid-morning start on a November weekend makes this an easy race to fit into a training block, whether you treat it as a hard effort or as a family walk. If you want to run it well, four to six weeks of consistent easy mileage plus one weekly session of faster repeats is enough for 3.1 miles. Warm up for ten minutes beforehand so the first mile does not catch you cold.
