Holiday 5K, 10K, 13.1M & 26.2M at Concord, NC (50) 2026

The Holiday race in Concord, North Carolina, begins at the Dogwood Shelter at 9:30 AM, featuring four distances: 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. All participants must register in advance via RunSignup; there is no race-day registration, and packet pickup is limited to a short period before the start. The course is shaded and primarily paved, with a single section of gravel or dirt. Each distance follows an out-and-back format: the 5K is completed once, the 10K twice, the half marathon four times, and the marathon eight times. The six-hour time limit is most relevant for the longer distances, where runners focus on completing multiple laps rather than a single continuous course.
