Road Dogs Announces October Registration for Run of Nations 2027
October 13, 2026, is the registration opening date for the Road Dogs Running Club’s Run of Nations 5K/10K, according to its promotional flyer, as preparations begin for the event scheduled for January 23, 2027, in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
The announcement gives prospective participants a date to mark ahead of the January race, which will offer both five-kilometre and ten-kilometre distances. Organisers are also inviting sponsorship and collaboration inquiries as they prepare for the next edition of the club’s signature event.
Under the slogan “It’s More Than a Run. It’s an Experience!”, the flyer presents the Run of Nations as a gathering built around running and shared community spirit. Its colourful display of national flags and a large group of participants reinforces the event’s cultural theme.
The race will follow the inaugural Run of Nations, held in Grace Bay on January 17, 2026. A contributed report published by NewslineTCI said more than 250 people attended that event, which combined competitive racing with a celebration of the different communities represented in the islands.
The first edition also supported Potcake Place K-9 Rescue through fundraising, according to the report. That community contribution added another dimension to an event whose appeal extended beyond finishing times and race results.
On the competitive side, Andres Davila won the inaugural men’s 10K in 44 minutes and 41 seconds, while Lynn Robinson finished first in the women’s 10K. Daniel Redmond and Eunice Missick topped the men’s and women’s 5K categories, respectively, NewslineTCI reported.
The upcoming event comes as Road Dogs works to strengthen its place within the territory’s athletics community. NewslineTCI recently reported that the club had joined the Turks and Caicos Amateur Athletic Association, giving it a formal connection to the national athletics structure.
That affiliation forms part of the club’s stated ambition to improve the standard of its road events and align its development efforts with World Athletics standards. The report also outlined plans to attract more than 500 runners to the January 2027 edition, including visitors and running enthusiasts from overseas.
For the forthcoming race, the flyer places particular emphasis on early awareness, urging the public to save the January date and scan a QR code to stay informed. The code offers a way for interested participants and supporters to follow further announcements as preparations continue.
The two advertised distances give entrants a choice of race length as they consider their fitness, preparation and plans for the January sporting event.
Businesses and organisations interested in sponsorship or collaboration can contact the club at RoadDogsTCI@gmail.com. The flyer also lists two telephone numbers for inquiries: +1 (649) 343-9582 and +1 (649) 245-5466.
The promotional material does not specify the venue, starting time, entry fees or registration procedure. Those details will be important for runners arranging their participation, especially anyone planning travel for the event.
There is also a discrepancy in the published registration information. While the supplied flyer states October 13, 2026, earlier online coverage gives October 1. Prospective participants should confirm the opening date directly with Road Dogs or follow the updates linked through the flyer.
With the January race date announced, the club’s immediate focus is on building participation and securing support for an event that brings competitive running and community celebration together.
