Recurring Half Marathon races near Baltimore
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Snack Town RunFest 2026
Snack Town RunFest takes place in Hanover, Pennsylvania, offering several distances rather than a single main event. The available races include a chip-timed half marathon, 10K, and 5K, along with a 5K Corporate Challenge and a Kids Fun Run for participants aged 4 to 12. The event occurs in early October, organized by the Hanover Area YMCA and supported by partners Utz Brands, Inc. and WellSpan Health.
The half marathon covers approximately 13.11 miles on a single-loop course, and the 5K is about 3.11 miles, also on a single loop. This format attracts a variety of participants: half marathoners, shorter-distance runners, corporate teams, families, and children who can race themselves instead of just observing. A local tradition is the Beer Bash on George, featuring craft breweries as part of the post-race activities.
DC Fall Classic 5k & Half
Haunted 5K, 10K, 13.1M at York, PA (41)
The Haunted 5K, 10K, and 13.1M in York, Pennsylvania, utilizes repeated short out-and-back segments originating from 1060 Church Road. The distance is determined by the number of repetitions. This event is a Halloween-themed US Road Running race suitable for runners and walkers, offering 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances that commence in the morning.
The 5K course involves two out-and-back repetitions, the 10K requires four, and the half marathon uses an extended out-and-back section repeated six times. The race has a time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes. Participants must register in advance via RunSignup. Consistent with the US Road Running format, the event includes themed race logos, finisher medals, awards, series points, and a best costume contest.
Chestertown Challenge Half Marathon Run and 5K Run/Walk
The Chestertown Challenge takes place on race morning at Wilmer Park in Chestertown, Maryland. A half marathon, a 5K run, and a 5K walk begin at 9 a.m. Packet pickup and race-day registration start at 8 a.m., accommodating both pre-registered participants and those signing up on the morning of the event.
The race supports Kent Association of Riding Therapy, Inc., a nonprofit organization assisting children and adults with disabilities. KART’s services include therapeutic horseback riding, barn management, and horse care. The Silent Hero option allows individuals to contribute to the fundraising efforts without participating in the run or walk.
DC SAFE 5k & Half
The DC SAFE 5k & Half is a Sunday morning race in Washington, DC, starting at 7:30 AM EDT from the Canal Road area near Georgetown. Runners can choose either a 5K or a half marathon, and walkers are welcome, accommodating those seeking a longer effort and those preferring a shorter outing.
Both distances utilize the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal path, remaining near the Potomac and the historic canal corridor. The half marathon begins and concludes near the Potomac Boat Club in Georgetown, while the 5K starts and finishes at Fletcher’s Boat House further up Canal Road. Virtual options are also available, with choices including a medal, a medal and shirt, or neither.
Baltimore Running Festival Half Marathon
The Baltimore Running Festival Half Marathon is a road race held in Baltimore, Maryland, as part of the larger Baltimore Running Festival. The event is scheduled for a Saturday in October, offering participants a fall race-day experience within a larger festival rather than a standalone half marathon.
The course details provided are limited. It is described as a half marathon on Baltimore roads, but specific neighborhood routes or elevation information are not available. RaceEntry currently shows no runner reviews, offering little public insight into crowd support, organization, or the overall course atmosphere.
Semper Fi 5k & Half
The Semper Fi 5k & Half is a morning race in Washington, DC, with both distances following the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal path. The half marathon begins and ends in Georgetown near the Potomac Boat Club, while the 5K uses Fletcher's Boat House as its start and finish point. Both races commence at 7:30 AM EDT, and walkers are permitted, meaning the event accommodates participants not solely focused on achieving a fast time.
The course directs participants along the canal path beside the Potomac River. The half marathon route is situated nearer to Georgetown, and the 5K route is located further up Canal Road at Fletcher's Boat House. The race is located at 4940 Canal Rd NW. The event provides in-person 5K and half marathon registrations, along with virtual participation options that include distinct shirt and medal selections. Travis Bishop is the designated event contact, and the race also provides a website and Facebook page for information.
Semper Fi Georgetown
Semper Fi Georgetown is a morning half marathon and 5K in Georgetown, Washington, DC, near the Nation's Capital. The half marathon starts at 7:30 a.m., followed by the 5K at 8:00 a.m. The longer race allows 3 hours and 15 minutes to finish.
Both distances use the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal path, a flat route suitable for runners seeking steady pacing and walkers. Strollers are welcome, accommodating families alongside half-marathoners, 5K runners, and casual participants. The race benefits Semper Fi & America's Fund, supporting service members, veterans, and military families.
Historic Drawbridge Running Festival
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.
Schaeffer Half Marathon, 10K, 5K Trail Run
The Schaeffer series is a trail-running event by EX2 Adventures held in Maryland and Virginia. It offers three race distances: a half marathon, a 10K, and a 5K trail run. This event is designed for runners seeking a trail experience over a road race.
The format provides participants with a choice between a longer trail effort, a middle-distance run, and a shorter option. EX2 Adventures also organizes adventure racing and triathlon events, placing the series within the region's wider outdoor endurance calendar.
Freedom is Never Free 5k, 10k, & Half
Service and Sacrifice 5k & Half
The Service and Sacrifice 5K & Half begins and ends at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, with the Florida Panthers serving as the host. The event features both a 5K and a half marathon, focusing on veterans and first responders and connecting to the Panthers Foundation’s support for the military.
Over 1,000 runners participated in the sold-out race, which included music from DJ Genesis at the start area. US Marine Gunnery Sergeant Jeffery Schuh was among the runners, and Cleefol Sanintvaliere finished first in just over 18 minutes.

About Half Marathon races in Baltimore
Baltimore Training Notes
Baltimore hosts 40 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Baltimore runners keep it close and practical. Locals use Patterson Park, Federal Hill Park, Druid Hill Park, Herring Run, Lake Montebello, Stony Run Trail, Jones Falls Trail, Gwynns Falls Trail, the NCR trail, and the BWI loop for base miles. Druid Hill Park gives you the hill work when intervals need teeth, and Greenspring back into the park feels brutal in the right way. Baltimore Frontrunners meet at Patterson Park, Washington Monument, and Canton Panera Bread, and all paces are welcome. Baltimore Road Runners Club, Charm City Run, Falls Road Running, and A Tribe Called Run keep the calendar busy. Baltimore Running Festival Half Marathon and Baltimore Women's Classic 5K are the anchor events.
Baltimore riders get a real mix from the fall line. Locals spin the Jones Falls Trail, Gwynns Falls Trail, Maryland Ave bike lane, B&A Trail, BWI to Annapolis, and the Eastern Shore when Z2 needs room. Baltimore Bicycling Club brings group rides for all days and paces, plus the Instructional Cycling Series, Chestertown Weekend, and Civil War Century. Riders head to Loch Raven Reservoir for a nice loop beyond with some climbs, and the Meadowood Hampstead Loop route stacks 1,073 m over 88.8 km. Druid Hill Park hides singletrack behind the zoo, and Stony Run, Sinai, Coldspring Newtown, Leakin, and Leon Day add cyclocross flavor.
Spring and autumn give Baltimore the cleanest training block because the weather stays mild. Summer brings hot and humid days, and a Chesapeake Bay breeze often shows up on summer afternoons, so locals start early for long runs, gran fondo prep, and steady BBC rides. July still works if hydration and pace stay honest. Winter ranges from chilly to mild with sporadic snowfall, and the long, cold stretch pushes more runners toward Track Tuesday workouts and dependable park loops. Cyclists lean on BBC winter socials, then Taneytown season opener energy starts pulling people back into bigger mileage.
