Just hearing the name tells you everything. 'KFC Run 2026' is the Colonel's cheeky break from the traditional fun run. This one's built for proper fried chicken devotees, the rare morning where you mind your health and pocket the ultimate reward at the same time, the Colonel's famous crispy bird, completely guilt-free.
Forget the races that leave you clutching nothing but a medal and a foil blanket. This course promises happiness, sunshine and the unmistakable scent of something sizzling up ahead. Cross the line and a plate of legendary spicy zabb wings waits to bring you back to life, crisp skin glistening, your aching legs immediately forgiven. Now that's motivation. Run while picturing that first bite and you might find your trainers moving quicker than they ever have, the whole stretch a blur of drumsticks and adrenaline.
Pick a distance, 5km for the casual jogger or 10km for the genuine show-offs, then warm up those hamstrings and mark the calendar. Runner or glutton or a bit of both, this one's got your name on it, and the finish line might be the most delicious in the city.
It all happens at Stadium One on September 6. Registration opens here on July 6 from 9am, with a strict 2,000 spots going and not one more.
Dawdle and you'll lose both the run and the wings, a tragedy on two fronts. Follow the KFC Run Facebook page for everything else, then start training. Or at least start thinking about it.
