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 5K & 10K
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 course is a flat loop within the park, suitable for new runners, consistent club runners, and those seeking a relaxed local race. Bishop Events manages registration for this event, as they do for many smaller races in the region.
Ainsley's Angels 11th Annual Spirit Of Inclusion 5K
The Spirit of Inclusion 5K is a community race hosted by Ainsley's Angels at Hopyard Farms. This residential neighborhood hosts the main 5K event in the afternoon. Participants can join in several ways: an in-person 5K, as an Angel Pusher, an Athlete Rider, a virtual 5K, or by running the Hopyard Harvest Mile or Hopyard Harvest Half Mile.
The 5K route is mostly flat, winding through neighborhood streets where many residents come out to support runners, walkers, riders, and DUO teams. Participants are invited to wear costumes for the yearly contest, and spectators gather to cheer for their favorite runners and athlete-rider pairings. The event's core principle is practical inclusion, aiming to help athletes cross the finish line together.
Trick Or Trot Crab Trot 5K
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.
North Point Fright Night 5K & Haunted Trail
The North Point Fright Night 5K & Haunted Trail is a Halloween-themed race and haunted-trail event held at North Point High School in Waldorf, Maryland. The 5K race utilizes the school’s official cross country course, with distinct waves for elite runners, middle school and younger runners, and an open/family group.
The elite wave has a limit of 100 runners. Families and younger participants have their starts scheduled for later in the afternoon. Registration provides a souvenir T-shirt, entry to the quarter-mile Trail of Lost Runners Past, and medals for the top three finishers. All proceeds benefit the North Point Track & Field Team. The event also features sponsor booths, food, and concessions.
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.
Hot Cider Hustle - Washington D.C. 5K & 10K
The Hot Cider Hustle - Washington D.C. 5K & 10K is a fall race held at National Harbor, Maryland. Participants can choose between a 5K or 10K race, both starting at 137 National Plaza. The event takes place in November and marks the 9th annual running. It follows a standard cold-weather road-race format, not a long-distance challenge.
The course specifics are minimal, but the structure is straightforward: runners select either the 5K or the 10K at National Harbor. The race's character comes from its post-race offerings. Every finisher receives a mug, apple cider, a caramel apple, and official race merchandise as part of their registration.
Fall City Views 5k & 10k
The Fall City Views 5k & 10k begins at Jones Point in Alexandria, Virginia. The 10K starts at 7:45 AM, followed by the 5K at 8:00 AM. This road race offers two distances along the Potomac River, directly opposite Washington, DC.

About 5K races in Lexington Park
Lexington Park Training Notes
Lexington Park hosts 34 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Lexington Park runners get most of their steady miles around Salem State Forest and St. Mary's Lake. Locals use the St. Locals use the St. 5 km of Intermediate trail instead of another road shuffle. Forest Road, Pine Trail, Plantation Trail, and East Lake Trail keep easy Z2 days simple. Town Creek gives the Robles Run 4 Change 5K a proper neighborhood feel. Leonard's Grant carries The 14th Annual Life's Good in LG 5k Race and Fun Run. Jefferson Patterson Park brings the Neon Nights 5K when the legs want something less serious.
Patuxent Velo Cycling is the name locals know for road rides in St Mary's and Calvert Counties. Riders use the St Mary's City loop for 16 km with 82 m of gain when the day needs base miles. Chaptico Loop gives 41 km with 245 m of gain, and the Hills and buggies route stretches the work to 88 km with 534 m of gain. Rural roads with buggy-wide shoulders make cycling a joy here. Inclines, winding roads, and broad stretches through farmland keep things relaxed. Locke's Hill brings the sting with a 20+% grade.
Summer gives Lexington Park its hot, humid training block, so locals run early and keep intervals honest. Cyclists use those same mornings for Z2, then save harder pulls for days when the air feels lighter. St. Mary's Lake and Salem State Forest stay useful when the sun is high, especially for shaded trail miles and dirt-path spins. Winter stays mild, so both sports keep moving instead of shutting down. Runners lean on 5K season rhythm, and riders keep base miles rolling on the rural loops. Cyclocross legs still like the gravel bits when the roads feel too routine.
