About the 2026 Bob Ivory 5K Run
The Bob Ivory 5K runs in Buffalo and is sanctioned by USA Track & Field. Beyond that, the course details in the organizer's notes are thin, but the morning has a clear shape to it: the race wraps up with a pancake breakfast, and family members and spectators are welcome to pull up a chair alongside runners.
The breakfast is open to everyone who shows up, with runners covered and guests paying a small fee at the door in cash. It reads like a race where the finish line is a starting point for the rest of the morning rather than the end of it.
