10K races near Spokane-Spokane Valley

Spokane Miles, Dirt, and Climbing

Spokane-Spokane Valley hosts 14 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 Spokane from pavement to singletrack without making a big production of it. Riverfront Park puts you straight onto the 37-mile Centennial Trail, and the trail keeps rolling more than 20 miles into Idaho. Riverside State Park gives runners 9,200 acres, Trail 25, and Bowl and Pitcher when Z2 needs dirt. South Hill Bluff lets you easily get 8 miles in, while Antoine Peak gives a 9-mile round trip with 732 feet of gain. Manito Running Club, Sunday Slugs, Kendall Yards Running Club, SoHi Running Club, and BRRC keep the week full. The Spokane Marathon, Windermere Marathon, BRRC Sundae Sunday, and Happy Girls Run Spokane are the anchor events.

Locals ride the Spokane River Centennial Trail for steady base miles, then point the bike toward Riverside State Park, Green Bluff, Cheney, and Spokane Valley gravel. Spokane Bicycle Club runs 7 regular group rides per week from mid-March through mid-November, and Wheel Sport, North Division Bicycle Shop, Baddlands Cycling Club, and Evergreen East all show up in the scene. Baddlands Cycling Club brings the 2026 Twilight Series at QLISPE RACEWAY PARK with electric energy and pack-race legs. The climbs sit on Mt. Spokane, Antoine Peak, Mica Peak, Beacon Blackout, and Lets Climb a Mountain. Lilac Century, Climb for The Cure 2026, and The Double Down Hoe Down are the anchor rides.

Spring and fall are the cleanest training blocks here, with April and May bringing lilacs and September and October giving strong running weather. Summer can exceed 100 degrees, so locals stack miles early, keep intervals short, and save long Z2 rides for cooler windows. Winter puts Spokane below freezing and snowy often enough that runners should be prepared to be trudging through some snow. Bike commuters use layers, good tires, fenders, and often studded tires or gravel bikes when snow and ice show up. Spokane Bicycle Club moves to Zwift in winter months, while local run clubs still run 52 weeks a year come rain or shine.
