Recurring 10K races near Reno

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Polio Purple Pinkie Trail Run
THU OCT 1
The 17th annual Polio Purple Pinkie Trail Run at Washoe County's Rancho San Rafael Park. The Rotary Club of Reno Midtown hosts this run/walk to support a good cause and enjoy the trails.
Lions Run
SAT OCT 10
The Lions Run is a race fundraiser held at Empire Ranch Golf Course in Carson City, Nevada. It features a half marathon, 10K, 5K, Family Fun Run, and a unique 0.0 None Run. For the None Run, participants need only a lawn chair; the objective is relaxation, not exertion. The running routes are situated on and near the golf course grounds. Aid stations are available along the courses, and registered runners receive precision timing. This is a new event designed to foster a community atmosphere. Participants receive a swag bag, a race shirt, finish-line photos, and access to a festival following the races.
Lake Tahoe Marathon Events
SUN OCT 18
The Lake Tahoe Marathon Events span three days around Lake Tahoe, typically in October. The weekend accommodates various participants: runners can race, jog, or walk, drawing thousands of athletes and visitors to the lake annually. Races utilize locations around the lake, such as Homewood on the California side. The events range from the kids' Pumpkin Run to the 72-mile Midnight Express, covering family activities, standard road races, and an extended overnight challenge.
Reno's Wobble Before You Gobble 10K / 5K
MON NOV 23
Reno's Wobble Before You Gobble 10K / 5K is a Thanksgiving Day run in Reno, Nevada, offering 10K and 5K distances. It is scheduled for November, providing a holiday-morning option before the meal suggested by its name. The listing provides basic details: the event is part of a race series, hosted in Reno, and includes separate 10K and 5K categories. The title itself is the main tradition, linking the run directly to Thanksgiving rather than a specific course feature or extensive history.
The Great Ski Race 2027
SUN MAR 7
The Great Ski Race is a nordic ski event in North Lake Tahoe, held at Tahoe Cross Country Center in Tahoe City, California. It takes place during the winter and serves as the primary fundraiser for Tahoe Nordic Search & Rescue, an all-volunteer group that aids in rescues within the Sierra backcountry. Participants can compete seriously or enjoy the day as a long tour, choosing between a 26 km main course and a 10 km option, both starting and ending at Tahoe XC. The 26 km course ascends from the Tahoe Basin, crosses Starratt Pass, and follows the 74 road, known as the Fiberboard Freeway. It circles through 4 Corners before heading back toward Carnelian Bay and the Blue Trail at Tahoe XC. This route includes 1,636 feet of elevation gain, presenting a significant climbing challenge, though the event maintains a festive atmosphere with a soup station offering complimentary snacks and beverages. The 10 km route remains at a lower elevation on the rolling trails of the nordic center. An untimed Tour Wave is available for those wishing to ski the full 26 km distance without official results. Both distances conclude with food and live music at the finish line.

About 10K races in Reno

Reno Training Notes

Reno hosts 6 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the Truckee River Trail when they want flat Z2 from downtown. Rancho San Rafael Regional Park gives you paved paths, dirt paths, and over 100 miles of singletrack. The South Park Loop and Pasture Loop in Rancho San Rafael combine for a 3-mile shakeout. Steamboat Ditch Trail starts on Skyline, and you can run as far as you need to. You can do 7 miles out and back when intervals need dirt. Reno Running Company, Summit Run Club, Mikkeller Running Club Reno, and Eclipse Running keep the week social. Rock Reno Half Marathon, Journal Jog 8K, Silver State, and RRC Trail Series anchor the calendar.

Locals ride the Truckee River Trail and Damonte Ranch Wetlands Trail for easy base miles. Reno Cycling Club, Reno Wheelmen, Great Rides Reno, Reno Gravel, and Reno-Tahoe Pedalers give the scene real depth. Reno Wheelmen fits road riders, mountain riders, gravel grinders, downhill freaks, enduro diehards, time trialers, crit racers, and recreational riders. Mount Rose Highway, Peavine Mountain Trails, Thomas Creek Trail, and Geiger Grade hold the climbs. Geiger Grade runs 7 km and gains 1,191 m. Mt. Rose Highway from Galena Creek Visitor Center to Mt. Rose Summit gives 17 miles round trip and 2,700 ft of elevation gain. The Boca Road Race is the anchor event.

Fall, winter, and spring give Reno the best rhythm when the trails are working and the air feels sharp. Summers are hot and dry, so locals move long runs, Z2 rides, and hill repeats early. Washoe Lake gets high wind speeds, and riders feel that when they point toward open ground. Winter brings moderately cold days, and the temperature reaches or dips below freezing on 122 days annually. Runners stay lower on the Truckee River Trail, Veteran’s Parkway bike path, and Sparks Marina routes. Cyclists keep city miles rolling, then chase dirt and alpine work again when Mount Rose, Peavine Peak, and the foothills settle down.
