Beyond The Grave 5K

Beyond The Grave 5K is a Halloween-night 5K in Lake Mary, Florida, run after dark through a historic cemetery. The main race starts in the evening and gives runners a headband flashlight, which is practical for the course and fits the spooky setup. Costumes are encouraged, and the event leans into the theme with a custom race shirt and a finisher medal showing a gravestone and zombie. The lineup also includes a free Zombie Shuffle kids race, a Challenge Mile, a virtual run, and volunteer roles for people who want to work the event or haunt the scare zone. The race is still young, with its second edition, and it raises money for education and future student leaders.
