Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Run for Hope + Miracle Mile
SAT OCT 3
Run for Hope + Miracle Mile is a 5K road race and 1 Mile Fun Run held at Peace Valley Park in Chalfont, Pennsylvania, starting from Sailor's Point. The event is set for a morning start in late May, organized by Bold Hope, with Pretzel City Sports managing the timing. The course details are not provided, but the race utilizes the Sailor's Point area within Peace Valley Park, located at 759 New Galena Road. The shorter race is named the Miracle Mile, and the 5K is part of the Run for Hope series, accommodating both road runners and those seeking a straightforward one-mile fun run.
10th Annual KJ's 5K for Mental Health and Animal Rescue
SAT OCT 3
KJ's 5K for Mental Health and Animal Rescue is a community 5K run/walk held at Portage Lakes State Park in Akron, Ohio. The in-person race begins at 9:00 am. A virtual 5K option is also available, allowing participants to complete the distance anywhere within its early-fall timeframe. This event is designed for local runners, walkers, families, and supporters, not exclusively competitive racers, with discounted entry fees for children aged 1 to 15. The park location provides a straightforward 3.1-mile course for the in-person event. The virtual option permits participants to cover the distance by running, walking, biking, crawling, or any other method away from the designated start line. Proceeds benefit local mental health and animal rescue organizations. The day features awards for the top three male, female, and youth finishers, followed by a remembrance and presentation. Virtual race packets contain a custom KJ's 5K shirt and a finisher medal.
15th Annual Green Bulldog Dash 5k, 1 Mile Fun Run and 200 Meter Dash
SUN OCT 4
The Green Bulldog Dash is a school-community running event in Uniontown, Ohio, held at Green High School Athletic Stadium on Steese Road. Each October, runners and walkers can choose from a certified 5K, a 1 Mile Run/Walk, or a 200 Meter Dash Family Fun Run. The 5K route circles the high school athletic stadium. The shorter options accommodate families, younger children, walkers, and first-time participants. Green Local Schools organizes this 15-year-old event, with proceeds benefiting nearly 2,000 students at Green Primary School and Green Elementary School.
2026 FAAP Fall Classic , North Park
SUN OCT 4
Finishers at the FAAP Fall Classic receive handmade bamboo medals after a trail race or walk based at North Harmar Pavilion in North Park, near Pittsburgh. Runners can choose 5K, 10K, or 20K distances, with staggered morning starts and a field capped at 400 participants. The race runs in early fall, timed for the first fall colors in Western Pennsylvania. About 95% of the route is on unpaved trails, including a section of the Rachel Carson Trail, and each distance starts and finishes at North Harmar Pavilion. The event has run for almost twenty years and raises money for an orphanage in the Philippines. Top finishers can earn cash prizes, Parent-Child teams have their own awards, and a folk dancing performance closes the day.
FAAP FALL CLASSIC
SUN OCT 4
The FAAP Fall Classic is a trail race and walk held in North Park, near Pittsburgh, offering 5K, 10K, and 20K distances. The event limits participation to 400 runners. The course is predominantly off-road, with approximately 95% of the route on unpaved trails. It is scheduled to coincide with the beginning of fall colors in Western Pennsylvania, providing participants with an early-season run through foliage instead of a typical park loop. The course incorporates a section of the Rachel Carson Trail, establishing a local trail-running identity for the event beyond the park's boundaries. The race has been held for almost twenty years and supports an orphanage in the Philippines. Participants who finish are awarded handmade bamboo medals. Top finishers are eligible for cash prizes, and there are also awards for Parent-Child teams. A folk dancing performance concludes the event, adding a community tradition that distinguishes it from a typical trail race morning.
Greenway Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
SUN OCT 4
Grand River Haunted Wine Run 5k
SUN OCT 11
The Grand River Haunted Wine Run 5k is a Halloween-themed run and walk held at Grand River Cellars in Madison, Ohio. Participants can choose between a 5k or a 1.5k distance. Two morning start times are offered to accommodate more participants by spreading them out on the course. J3 Timing provides the race timing and scoring, with the event designed to be welcoming for both walkers and runners. The course follows the grounds and landscape surrounding Grand River Cellars, placing the winery at the heart of the event. Attendees enjoy a relaxed fall race, a costume-encouraged Halloween atmosphere, and the opportunity to enjoy award-winning wine after their run or walk. The shorter distance allows those who prefer not to run the full 5k to still participate.
Covered Bridge Festival 5K
SUN OCT 11
The Covered Bridge Festival 5K is a run and walk in Barrackville, West Virginia, held as part of the annual Barrackville Covered Bridge Festival. Race activities start at 7 a.m., and the 5K offers participants a straightforward festival-morning route through town, distinct from a large-city race. The 5K concludes at Barrackville’s covered bridge, the landmark central to the festival. A 1-mile walk is available for those seeking a shorter distance, and younger children have their own sprint from Town Hall to the school. Registration is low-cost, event shirts are sold separately, and parking is available around the Community Hall, local church lots, and the Dollar General lot.
Sancta Clara Monastery Nun Run
SAT OCT 17
At the Sancta Clara Nun Run, nuns cheer participants as the 5K enters the monastery grounds. The Saturday morning run/walk starts at St George Byzantine Catholic in Canton, Ohio. Registration is capped at 300 due to fire-code and parking limitations. The event benefits the Poor Clares sisters, with proceeds supporting the nuns and the renovation of Sancta Clara Monastery. The course includes local streets, the Middlebranch trail, and the monastery grounds, giving it the feel of a parish-and-neighborhood fundraiser rather than a typical road race. Strollers are permitted, and those not participating in the run or walk can opt for a shirt-only package. A kids fun run precedes the 5K, followed by awards, refreshments, food, face painting, and a balloon artist. All finishers get a running nun medal, and the race marks the start of the Poor Clares' anniversary observance in Canton.
Preston Park 5k & 10k
SUN OCT 18
The Preston Park 5k & 10k is a fall race held at Preston Park, 415 S. Eberhart Road in Butler, Pennsylvania, beginning at 9:00 a.m. The Friends of Preston Park Foundation sponsors this event, and walkers are welcome to participate with runners. The 5k course is runnable and not technical, making it suitable for first-time participants and experienced runners alike. Many participants have discovered Preston Park, a location referred to as “Butler County’s hidden gem.” Awards will be presented after the race, BiGGz BBq will offer food on site, and participants wearing a mask will receive a treat in observance of the Halloween spirit.
Marigold 5K Run 2026
SUN NOV 1
The Marigold 5K Run traces the edge of North Park Lake in Allison Park, Pennsylvania. Runners and walkers convene at North Park, near 303 Pearce Mill Road. This is a morning 5K connected to Día de los Muertos, starting at 9 a.m. with a noon finish window, and it generates funds for the Latino Community Center. The race is open to families, walkers, new runners, and community supporters, not exclusively competitive 5K runners. A 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk, Pasito a Pasito, offers younger children and shorter-distance participants a separate option. The finish area features music and children's activities. The event originated as an LCC fundraiser, later expanded to its third annual occurrence, and all proceeds aid programs that empower and celebrate Latinos in Allegheny County.

About 5K races in Youngstown-Warren, OH

Youngstown-Warren Training Notes

Youngstown-Warren, OH 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 Mill Creek Park first, because we run in one of Ohio’s most beautiful parks. Mill Creek MetroParks gives runners over 15 miles of trails around lake Glacier, lake Cohasset, and lake Newport. The East Golf Hike & Bike Trail is fantastic for steady Z2, and the East Cohasset trail by lake Cohasset stays smooth with new stone. The Old Mill area brings the hills. Youngstown Road Runners Club meets for regular club runs, and Fleet Feet Youngstown runs a free Thursday 6:00 PM 3-4 mile loop. Sole to City, Panerathon, Youngstown Peace Race, and Youngstown Ultra Trail Classic anchor the calendar.

Riders use the same park-heavy map, then stretch base miles through Austintown and Belmont Avenue. Bike Belmont starts and ends at Wick Park, with a 32-mile ride to the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport, a 12-mile neighborhood ride to Churchill Park, and a 5-mile family-friendly ride. Outspoken Wheelmen, CycWard, YoGo Bikeshare, and Cruise the Creek give the local scene some shape. The Canfield through Austintown bike trail is nice for steady spinning. The climbs sit around Mill Creek Park, especially the Old Mill area, where runners and riders both feel the grade.

Summer keeps the city busy without making the routine complicated. The Struthers 4th of July Parade 5K and Kids Fun Run land in July, and the Falcon Glow Fest 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run hits Austintown in August on a flat and fast course. Locals keep using Mill Creek Park, Austintown park, Wick Park, and Churchill Park for intervals, trail days, and easy Z2. Winter changes the feel, not the habit, with more paved-trail miles, car-free East Cohasset Hike and Bike Trail time, and It's Leg Day 5K in November.
