The .05K, presented by 98ROCK, is a small Baltimore race with a distance that's a joke: it measures just 162 feet, or “point zero five K.” This yearly evening event takes place at Union Craft Brewing and functions as a launch party for the Baltimore Running Festival. Registration costs $15 and includes a bib and a commemorative 98ROCK/.05K T-shirt. The course is essentially a short dash or walk, after which participants return to Union Craft Brewing. Justin, Scott, and Spiegel from 98ROCK lead the event, which includes check-in, pre-race beer, and a warm-up before the one-minute race. The event is open to ages 21 to 99, costumes add to the enjoyment, and those not running can still attend for the brewery gathering. All proceeds from entry fees benefit the Baltimore City Firefighters Local 734 Widows & Orphans Fund.

The Hyattsville Zombie Run is an annual family race day held at Driskell Park in Hyattsville, Maryland. It features three distances: a 1K Family Fun Run, a 1 Mile Kids Run, and a USATF-certified 5K. This allows children, casual walkers, and runners seeking a measured course to participate in the same event. The Hyattsville Elementary School PTA organizes the run, with proceeds benefiting local elementary schools. Funds are allocated for essential school needs, including art supplies, musical instruments, classroom materials, children's coats, teacher appreciation, and school beautification initiatives. The event welcomes neighbors from Hyattsville and friends from across the DMV, and a virtual option may also be available.

The Retriever 5k Dawg Chase and Fun Run begins and ends at UMBC’s Albin O. Kuhn Library in Baltimore.

Check-in starts early, with the race/walk commencing at 8:30 a.m. The course is contained on campus, with both distances concluding back at the library. Participant numbers are limited to 250, fostering a community feel for Homecoming rather than a large-scale road race. UMBC students receive a reduced entry fee, and alumni, faculty, staff, friends, and families can register individually or as a family pack. Those who register early will get a commemorative shirt and a participant medal.

The Cardinal Cup is a fall 5K run and 1-mile walk held at the School of the Cathedral, 111 Amberly Way in Baltimore. It is hosted by the School of the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen, with Mother Seton Academy invited as the beneficiary and community partner. The race features a timed 5K for runners and a shorter walk for those who want the day without the full distance. The event supports Mother Seton Academy: net proceeds and all sponsorship donations go directly to the school. A past edition had over 500 participants, indicating it is more than a small school fundraiser. Awards are presented to the top three overall male and female 5K finishers, while the 1-mile option is open to younger children, families, walkers, and supporters focused on the cause rather than a race result.

The Cats & Bats Haunted 5K begins at Festival Park in Aberdeen, Maryland, at 8:00 a.m. on Halloween morning.

Now in its 12th year, packet pickup is available under the pavilion starting at 6:30 a.m. The process is straightforward: arrive at the park, collect your bib, and proceed to the certified 5K course.

The Historic Drawbridge Running Festival takes runners over and alongside Talbot County’s historic drawbridges on a fast waterfront route. The event typically provides a 5K, 10K, half marathon, and Kids Dash, suitable for walkers, families, first-timers, and runners seeking a longer challenge. The organization is practical: chip timing, marked turns, staffed aid stations, posted course maps, elevation profiles, and pace limits inform participants before race day. The courses trace the county’s working waterways, featuring flat sections, coastal breezes, harbors, marsh views, historic neighborhoods, boats, and potential wildlife. Local authorities manage bridge operations and traffic control, important as the route uses active drawbridges. Many editions include finisher medals, race shirts, age-group awards, race photos, real-time results, post-race refreshments, and sometimes a shakeout run or course talk before the main events.

The Long Branch 5K is an annual 5 km fun run in Silver Spring, Maryland, starting at 8 AM from Long Branch-Garland Park.

A Packet Pickup Party before race day includes dinner, drinks, and an opportunity to collect race materials early.
