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.

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 Linganore Haunted Wine Run 5k is a Halloween-themed run/walk held at Linganore Winecellars in Mt. Airy, Maryland. It is a timed 5k for runners and walkers, with chip timing provided by J3 Timing and results posted online post-race. Registration includes a pour of Linganore wine, a soft cotton T-shirt, a finisher medal, a chip-timed bib, and a portable collapsible wine glass. The course winds through the vineyard and wooded areas of the Linganore property, offering a fall outing feel rather than a standard road race. Participants can select their start time, accommodating groups of friends and mixed-pace runners. The appeal is straightforward: complete a 5k run or walk during Halloween season, return to the winery, and enjoy a glass of wine from the vineyard.

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.
