Recurring 10K races near Winchester

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Haunted 5K, 10K & 13.1M at Bel Air, MD (40)
SAT OCT 3
The Haunted 5K, 10K & 13.1M in Bel Air, Maryland, starts at 8:00 AM and offers 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances. All participants must register in advance via RunSignup; no race-day registration is available. Packet pickup occurs on race morning only, from 30 minutes before the start until 10 minutes prior. The courses consist of repeating out-and-back segments. The 5K course is a 1.56-mile out-and-back completed twice. The 10K uses the same segment four times, and the half marathon covers a 2.18-mile out-and-back segment six times. With a 3-hour, 30-minute time limit, the half marathon configuration is suited for runners who do not mind crossing the same section multiple times.
Tie Dye Run
SAT OCT 10
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.
Freedom's Run
SAT OCT 10
Freedom's Run ties its races to places where Civil War history is part of the ground underfoot: Harpers Ferry, Antietam, and the surrounding region. The series includes a May Harpers Ferry Half & 5K and an October Freedom's Run event, with distances ranging from a full marathon and half marathon to a 10K, 5K, and Kids Fun Run. The Harpers Ferry races run inside Harpers Ferry National Park, while the longer Freedom's Run routes connect runners with historic sites in and around the area. One runner remembered entering Antietam in cold rain, with mist rising from wet earth and the field going quiet as the group ran together. The series also links to Two Rivers Treads, a local running store with a foot-first approach to shoes and gait, and it raises money for a community grant fund supporting local health and community projects.
MCRRC Black Hill 10K
SAT OCT 17
=PR= Races: Fall Classic 10K
SUN OCT 18
The Fall Classic 10K is a running race held in Ashburn, Virginia, with its start and finish at One Loudoun. The 10K begins at 8:00 a.m. on Exchange Street, directly before the Plaza at One Loudoun. A virtual 10K is also available for participants who prefer to complete the distance independently. Potomac River Running is the organizer of this race, guiding participants through Ashburn neighborhoods instead of utilizing a stadium or trail-only route. Having completed seven editions, the event suits runners seeking a simple, local 10K that includes an in-person start, a neighborhood course, and a virtual option for the same distance.
Buzz Sawyer Western Maryland Marathon/Half Marathon/10k
SUN OCT 18
The Buzz Sawyer Western Maryland Marathon/Half Marathon/10k begins and ends in Hancock, Maryland. All three races take place on the Western Maryland Rail Trail. This October event offers marathon, half marathon, and 10k distances. The marathon and half marathon courses are USATF certified. The marathon is also a Boston Marathon qualifier, attracting runners aiming for a qualifying time and locals seeking a trail race. The course is entirely on the WMRT, a rail trail passing through a town linked to trail travel and C&O Canal history. This is the race's 11th edition, now named for Buzz Sawyer, a Washington County distance runner, coach, race director, and founder of the JFK50 Miler. Katie and Adam Lowe of 2Lowe Run Company direct the event, having taken over from Frank and Mike of Altis Endurance, with the goal of upholding the race's local traditions.
Halloween Horror 5k & 10k
SUN OCT 25
Ghostly Grapes 5k & 10k at Two Twisted Posts
SUN OCT 25
The Ghostly Grapes 5k & 10k is a fall trail run and walk held at Two Twisted Posts Winery & Tavern in Purcellville, Virginia. Participants select either a 5K or 10K distance, with both courses utilizing the winery's property and nearby trails by Short Hill Mountain. BISHOP'S EVENTS organizes the run, which accommodates both walkers and runners in a relaxed atmosphere. The start and finish lines are located at the winery on Harpers Ferry Road, leading participants back to post-run food, beer, music, and wine. A complimentary glass of wine is included after the run. The Ghostly Grapes theme incorporates costumes, awards, and race shirts. The event also supports a charity, and early registration provides a reduced fee.

This fall event includes a 10K, a 5K, and a Fun Run/Walk, along with a Tot Trot for children. The 5K route accommodates strollers, making the day suitable for families and casual runners, as well as those aiming for a personal best. The course stays within the state park, avoiding city streets. Participants have the option to camp in the park the night before through the Camp-and-Run package, placing them near the start line for the next morning. Proceeds benefit the Friends of Cunningham Falls and Gambrill State Parks. Local businesses and running enthusiasts are also invited to sponsor the race, whether they participate or not.
Narrow Way
SAT NOV 7
The Narrow Way begins at Canal Place in Cumberland, Maryland, directing runners onto the Great Allegheny Passage Trail west of town. Held annually since 2019, it provides 10K, 5K, and 1K fun run/walk choices, suitable for racers, walkers, families, and younger participants. The course crosses The Narrows, a valley with steep sides that lends the race part of its name. The "Narrow Way" also connects to a faith-based concept: Allegany County FCA links it with the path to eternal life. The race generates scholarship funds for students attending local and regional FCA camps. Local high school cross country runners are also given a racing chance, and participants can form or join teams.
Schaeffer Half Marathon, 10K, 5K Trail Run
SAT NOV 7
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.

WED NOV 25
The Winery at Bull Run Turkey Trot is a pre-Thanksgiving 5K and 10K in Northern Virginia. Both distances are run on the trails of Manassas National Battlefield.

About 10K races in Winchester

Winchester Training Notes

Winchester hosts 38 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 Winchester through Old Town, Rose Hill Park, and Sherando Park. The 25-mile loop trail works when the day calls for easy Z2 or quick intervals. Sherando Park mixes paved paths and wooded trails, so trail legs get work without leaving the local orbit. Shenandoah Valley Runners keeps the scene serious with group runs and races across Winchester, Frederick County, and West Virginia. Runners' Retreat hosts weekly runs through town. Old Town Winchester gets the Loudoun Street Mile. Third Winchester Battlefield 5k, 10k, & Half and Apple Blossom 10K anchor the calendar.

Winchester Wheelmen Bicycle Club carries the riding scene, and the club has been the cyclists' voice in the northern Shenandoah Valley since 1973. Locals use its Frederick County rides for base miles, classes, and outreach. The route covers 7 km with 1,061 m of ascent and 1,007 m of descent. The next segment is 4 km adding 100 m of ascent and 80 m of descent. Sherando Park bike trails handle mixed-terrain days. The 6th Annual CCAP Benefit Bike Tour 2026 works as the anchor ride.

May, June, July, August, and September give Winchester its best training block. Summer brings the SPEAR TRAIL SERIES onto Sherando Park bike trails, while Heatwave Hustle 5k & 10k in June and Glow All Out 5K Glow Run in July keep runners honest. Locals treat the warm months as race season, gran fondo prep, and steady base miles. Winter changes the rhythm. SVR sponsors the SVR Winter Series, so runners still have structure when the easy miles get colder. Cyclists lean on the Winchester Wheelmen ride network and the familiar Frederick County routes when the event calendar quiets down.
