Memphis Shelby County Airport Authority (MSCAA) is excited to host its inaugural MEM Runway 5K on September 20.

Participants will have a chance to run on one of MEM’s runways and get a close-up view of aircraft landing and taking off. The uniqueness of this event allows runners to experience the airport grounds, and rare views of an airport that served nearly 5 million passengers in 2024 and ranks among one of the busiest cargo airports in world.
