Running Nudists

A group for those of us who think running is a nice way to exercise. Do not think there are so many of us who are able to run naked as the group is for both naked and clothed runners.

Nude Runs (5ks) near Kentucky

Return to Discussions

Training for my second half marathon late summer. I would love to
include some naked 5k's this summer. Please share events that you
become aware of. Hoping within weekend driving distance of
west/central Kentucky.

Thanks for the info. I suspect there are more. I just have not found them easily doing Internet search. Happy running!!!

Pennsylvania is hardly a quick drive from Kentucky, but if you can make a weekend of it there is a great 7K trail run at Sunny Rest Resort on June 11th. They also host a 5K on paved roads August 28th. Both are timed by Pretzel City, the usual awards, t-shirts, etc etc. I've run this one for the past 3 years and enjoyed it every year. I have a tear in the cartilage in my right knee (from a half marathon last October) that still has me not running, but I will be at Sunny Rest on June 11th to help out even if I can't run.Good luck with your training!

We will be there June 11 as well. I thought June was the 5k and
August was the 7k. I've never tried a trail run.
EDIT: I called Sunny Rest to modify our reservations this morning (arriving Friday instead of Thursday), and they confirmed that this year the races have been switched around. June is the 5K road race and August is the 7K trail race. I signed up for the road race this morning, since it is the last day to guarantee a shirt and pay the lower entry fee.

However, I'm still nursing my injured knee so I don't think I will be running, but there are still two weeks, who knows, I may try to run anyway (or else help out, cheer people on, whatever). My knee is why I didn't sign up in advance as I usually do, but I'm not worried, they have had extra shirts every year I've run it.
Hope to see you there.

There is always the option of just doing the 1K walk this year. My knee was a little off on the treadmill Tuesday, and I have another 5K fun run at work this Wednesday. I'll probably wear my knee band this week just in case. What are the usual ratios of nude runners/walkers to clothed ones at the Sunny Rest events?

I'll be at Turtle Lake in MI on June 24th weekend...and staying the whole weekend. Then on July 9th, I'll be at the White Thorn Lodge, just across the boarder of OH/PA, south of Pittsburg. Staying that whole weekend too! They are so much fun!

Anybody that loves being naked and lives in the area ( Sun Ray Hills, WI.) should think about supporting a great cause.Sign up for the naked 5k and some of the money goes towards helping find a cure for Breast &testicular cancer. Its a great time, Fun, Food, booze, nakedness. Come run and have fun.
