The CalvertHealth Breast Cancer 5K Run/Walk is a community 5K held at Solomons Medical Center in Solomons, Maryland. The race begins with an early program, a 8:30 a.m. start, and awards presented later in the morning. Participants can choose the timed 5K run or the Fun Walk. Both activities benefit the Sheldon E. Goldberg Center for Breast Care via the CalvertHealth Foundation. The event focuses on honoring and remembering those affected by breast cancer, welcoming runners, walkers, supporters, families, and local residents, not solely competitive racers. All participants receive a medal, and the event includes custom shirts and bibs. Awards are given to the top male and female finishers overall, as well as age-group winners. Vendors will be present before the race start. Each registration enters a drawing for a Viking Cruise, with a second cruise awarded if participation reaches 2,000.

Beach to Beer takes place on an October race morning in Colonial Beach, Virginia, featuring a 10K, a 5K, and a non-timed 1-mile walk. The 10K begins first, followed by the 5K a few minutes later, and the walk starts after both runs, ensuring a compact and straightforward event. The 5K and 10K are chip-timed with live results, while the 1-mile option provides a relaxed way for walkers and children to participate. The 5K and 10K follow a flat, fast course along the Potomac side of Colonial Beach, concluding at Colonial Beach Brewing. Walkers in the 5K begin after the runners, and the 5K has a 1-hour time limit. Awards are presented to the top three overall finishers and the top three in each age group for both timed races, with age groups for participants 14 and under. Post-race, Colonial Beach Brewing and Ice House Brewery serve local craft beer, and the race benefits BAMM.

The Trick Or Trot Crab Trot 5K is a Halloween-season run/walk on Cobb Island, following a full loop of the island’s perimeter. It is a chip-timed 5K, designed for walkers and runners of all ages and fitness levels, not solely for those aiming for a fast time. The race proceeds rain or shine, with standard registration at $40. The course circles Cobb Island, offering water views along Neale Sound, the Potomac River, and the Wicomico River. The crab theme adds to the enjoyment: participants are encouraged to wear crab-themed costumes or gear, with a prize awarded for the best costume. This marks the fourth annual running of the event, and early registrants are assured a finisher medal and race T-shirt.

The Budds Creek Turkey Trot 5k, 10k, & Half is a November race held at Budds Creek Motorsports Park on Budds Creek Road in Mechanicsville, Maryland. This event offers runners three distance options: the standard 5K and 10K, along with a half marathon for those seeking a longer distance than typically found at holiday-themed trots. The unique setting distinguishes this race, as participants convene at a motorsports park instead of a typical downtown street, park loop, or school campus. Bishop's Events is the organizer, with Travis Bishop as the event contact. The listing notes Budds Creek as one of the organizer's more recent Turkey Trot venues. Virtual participation is also available, with options including a medal, no medal or shirt, or both a medal and shirt.

The Krampus Krawl offers runners a yearly opportunity to run on Maryland International Raceway in Mechanicsville, Maryland, rather than observe vehicles using it. The event provides both a 5K and a 10K on a December morning, starting at 9:45 AM Eastern. Bishop’s Events is the organizer, with Travis Bishop as the event contact. The main attraction is the venue: the course utilizes the raceway on Budds Creek Road, making the experience primarily track-and-asphalt rather than a park path or neighborhood loop. In-person registration fees vary by distance and increase as race day approaches. Virtual participation is also available, with options including a medal, without a medal or shirt, or with both a medal and shirt when that package is available.
