Recurring 5K races near Gettysburg

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

RunThrough USA Druid Hill Park (Baltimore) 5K & 10K October 2026

The second edition runs through Druid Hill Park, a historic public park. The course follows tree-lined paths and open green spaces, with clear signs and marshals. A themed medal, chip-timed results, and free race photos are included. Marshals will provide guidance and encouragement.

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.

YMCA Hop Dash 5K

The Tröegs Hop Dash 5K is a 5K run/walk held in Hershey, Pennsylvania, concluding at Tröegs Independent Brewing. Organized by the Harrisburg Area YMCA in partnership with Tröegs, the race has been a fixture in the Harrisburg/Hershey area since 2016. Donegal Insurance Group presents the event. A virtual 5K option is available for those who wish to receive the race shirt and participate in the format without running the Hershey course. The in-person route guides participants through Hershey's hills, finishing at the brewery on Hersheypark Drive. Following the race, the event offers beers, snacks, live music, games, and time at the brewery, moving beyond a simple medal-and-departure experience. Race participants receive exclusive Tröegs merchandise, reinforcing the event's connection to the brewery beyond its use as a location.

Haunted 5K, & 10K at New Cumberland, PA (40)

The Haunted 5K and 10K is a morning road race held at Roof Park in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. Both the 5K and 10K distances begin at 8:30 AM.

The course follows an out-and-back format. 5K participants complete the route three times, and 10K participants complete it six times. A two-hour time limit is in effect, suitable for steady-paced runners and walkers. All finishers receive medals. Awards will be presented at the event, including a best costume award reflecting the Halloween theme. The race also contributes to series points, attracting participants focused on standings as well as local residents seeking a themed autumn run.

Druid Hill Park (Baltimore) 5k/10K

Cumberland Valley TrailFest

The 20th Cumberland Valley TrailFest is centered at Shippensburg Station, a key location for this long-standing event. It is a vital part of the Cumberland Valley Race Series, a yearlong competition with events throughout the Cumberland Valley, connecting runners with the region's expansive trail network. This milestone edition is presented by the Cumberland Valley Rails-to-Trails Council. All events begin and conclude at Shippensburg Station, located at the corner of Fort and. Runners will follow routes curated by the Rails-to-Trails Council, embracing the unique characteristics of converted railway lines. This gathering marks two decades of fostering outdoor activity along the valley's scenic paths.

MoCo CARES Charity Race

The MoCo CARES Charity Race begins at 7503 Muncaster Mill Road in Gaithersburg, Maryland, offering 1.6 km, 5 km, and 10 km distances. This local charity run, organized by So What Else and Covenant Life School, focuses on fundraising for local charities and assisting children and families in need throughout Montgomery County. The course features short-distance paths arranged by volunteers, including a route similar to a 1-mile run and a 5K route. Local families, businesses, volunteers, and Companies Who CARE participate in the event. Capital Youth Outreach Club collaborates with So What Else for service support. Volunteers manage the event's logistics, such as setting up signs and booths, encouraging runners, ensuring children's safety, participating in a post-race service project, and assisting with cleanup. Formerly known as the LaunchCARES Charity Race, it originated as a small community gathering before growing into a county-wide initiative aimed at combating hunger.

E-Racing Prostate Cancer 5K/1M Run/Walk

The E-Racing Prostate Cancer 5K/1M Run/Walk is a family-friendly run and walk at City Island Park in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The main options are a timed 5K run/walk and a 1-mile walk, both starting at 9:00 a.m. EDT, with a Kids Dash just before them at 8:45 a.m. EDT. A virtual walk is also available for those who wish to support the cause from afar. The event focuses on prostate cancer awareness, survivor support, and remembrance. It honors survivors and caregivers, remembers those lost to the disease, and allows participants to create fundraising pages with recognition rewards. Children can participate in activities and a Kids Superhero Dash for Dad. The host, the Blue Ribbon Cancer Coalition of Pennsylvania, funds screening and treatment programs, assists individuals in treatment with qualified financial needs, and supports education on diagnosis and treatment advances.

The Tie Dye Run takes place on a fall morning in Hagerstown, Maryland, starting at 17805 Oak Ridge Drive. Participants can choose from three distances: a 5K run/walk, a 10K run/walk, and a Family Fun Walk/Run. This setup accommodates both competitive runners aiming for a personal best and families seeking a shared activity. The family event begins earlier, with the 5K and 10K starting later in the morning after participants have checked in. The event is in its third year and benefits Compassion International, with all proceeds directed to the charity. Awards are presented to the top male and female finishers in the 5K and 10K, as well as to winners in various age groups, from youth categories up to 70 and older. Registration fees vary based on the chosen distance; the 10K is the most expensive, the family event is the least costly, and prices increase after the early registration period closes.

The Dash & Dine 5K is a four-race spring series held at Boulder Reservoir. Each race takes place on a Tuesday evening at 6:30 pm. This family-friendly 5K is designed as preparation for the BOLDERBoulder race, and participants have the option to register for a single race or the entire series. The course begins and ends at the reservoir, following an out-and-back path along the roads and dams on the south side. Following each race, registered participants receive dinner from local food vendors, along with awards for overall and age-group winners and prize drawings. Boulder Running Events, LLC organizes the series, which also functions as an official qualifier for the BOLDERBoulder race.

About 5K races in Gettysburg

Gettysburg Base Miles

Gettysburg hosts 100 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run Gettysburg National Military Park when they want steady base miles with monuments, stone walls, and wide fields around them. Gettysburg Battlefield has paved roads with gentle rolling terrain that's moderately challenging. Small town streets and quiet country roads make easy Z2 loops feel connected without getting dull. Gettysburg Running Club, based at Gettysburg College, keeps the scene supportive for runners of all levels. The Gettysburg Festival of Races is the anchor event, and Gettysburg Brewfest & Trail 5K, Adams County Winery Haunted Wine Run 5k, and the Memorial Day Free 5K keep the calendar moving.

Gettysburg National Military Park is the default ride when locals want paved roads, steady views, and no fuss. Riders keep bikes on paved park roads and avenues, walk pedestrian walks and trails, and skip the National Cemetery and Annex. Emmitsburg Road Loop and Big Round Top Climb handle the bigger efforts, while Culp's Hill Ride and Taneytown Road Trail stay popular for shorter spins. The park roads total 1 km with 1,337 m of elevation. The Gettysburg Loop Tour gives cyclists a real anchor ride in October.

Late April gives Gettysburg runners cool mornings and mild afternoons, so the Festival of Races lands in a sweet spot. June brings the wettest month, so locals start early and keep intervals honest. Summer riding stays best on park roads, Battlefield Route laps, and farm loops before the heat builds. Winter averages 6 °C and brings cool to moderately cold days with relatively frequent snowfalls. Gravel riders treat state game lands differently then, because those roads can be gated to cars out of season and do not promise winter maintenance.
