Join us for a one-of-a-kind 5K at the NCAT Test Track, a world-renowned research facility from Auburn University. The Test Track is a 1.7-mile oval roadway used by researchers and industry partners to study pavement performance under real-world traffic loading, helping advance safer, longer-lasting, and more sustainable roads.
This rare event gives participants the opportunity to run on the same pavement sections that support cutting-edge transportation research, an experience you won’t find anywhere else. Whether you’re a competitive runner or simply looking for a fun and unique race, the Test Track 5K offers a flat, fast course and a chance to be part of something truly special.
Proceeds from this race support the AAPT Student Chapter at Auburn University, helping fund student involvement in asphalt research, professional development, and industry engagement.
Lace up, hit the track, and run where innovation meets the road.
