Eldon Morgan's Neosho Dogwood Run 5K

Always inexpensive, the Dogwood Run 5K has been held annually in Neosho, Missouri since  Eldon Morgan first hosted it in 1983. We don't want money. We want to see you and your family run! Awards for age groups from 'under 10' to 'over 70' and the Delynn Kuhn Lifetime Achievement Award for the fastest older runner. The first 150 entrants get a dogwood tree.

New course this year! Clockwise loop with start finish at Big Spring Park in Neosho, MO. The course is challenging and beautiful with the dogwoods and redbuds in bloom. All proceeds from the event go to a local infrastructure project to support active lifestyles in Neosho, MO. Last year we are raised funds to provide public tools for the Skate park (in Morse Park) and to help the Joplin Road Runners buy a chip timing system!

This is an old school, no frills race: no finishers medals, no t-shirts. This keeps the cost low so you can bring the whole fam without breaking the bank, or sign up a friend for their first 5K. Come join us!
