Bringing Energy, Precision & Community Spirit to Your Race Day

At Central Kentucky Race Management (CKRM), we don’t just time races—we create unforgettable event experiences. Whether you’re launching your very first 5K, hosting a marathon, organizing a charity run, or managing a large-scale endurance event, our team delivers the expertise, tools, and passion to make your race a standout success.

With over 150 events on our schedule this year—ranging from intimate charity runs to energetic night races to massive endurance challenges—we know no two races are alike. That’s why we work to make every event just a little different from the rest, blending proven best practices with creative touches that keep participants talking long after race day. Our team consists of highly trained and experienced timers with the knowledge to handle large scale events and the personality to make small events feel perfect for both walkersd and runners.

From start to finish, we handle the details that matter most—course planning, race permitting, registration process, volunteer coordination, and race-day logistics—so you can focus on your participants and cause. Our professional chip timing services deliver accurate, reliable results using the latest technology, while our high-energy entertainment options ensure your event feels more like a community celebration than “just a race.”

To help you go above and beyond, we also offer a wide range of event enhancements including:

Custom race medals & awards
Event t-shirts
Large 4K video display trailers
Night race lighting & specialty items
And much more to give your race that extra “wow” factor
