Owensboro, KY
The race moves through Owensboro as a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., organized in partnership with the local Human Relations Commission. The mission behind it is equity and inclusion work in the city, so the crowd tends to reflect that purpose, drawing people who care about the cause as much as the course.
