Whether you are participating as a competitor or just for fun, Healthy New Albany Races are an integral part of our structure and function. Not only do they promote physical activity, but 100% of proceeds from each race helps Healthy New Albany’s other initiatives survive and thrive.

2020 is an exciting year for Healthy New Albany as we are offering 3 different walks and runs, including a free virtual marathon for kids and their families that could be completed gradually over a 2-month span. The pilot of virtual Kids Marathon took place from April 1 – May 31, 2020 with a great response!

The New Albany Walking Classic is our signature race that welcomes about 3000 people annually. It is America’s largest walking-only race. This year the Walking Classic is coming to your neighborhood, on your time…virtually! We decided to go virtual after a great deal of research and deliberation. Ultimately our participants’ safety is the most important factor. The Walking Classic is all about YOUR health after all. Participants will still receive all the awesome swag they have come to expect! Click the link below for all of the details.
