Medal Madness 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Winston-Salem, NC (38) 2026

Medal Madness in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is a Saturday morning running race offering 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances, all beginning at 8:00 AM. Registration is required in advance via RunSignup, as there is no race-day sign-up. Packet pickup is available only for a brief period before the start. The 5K and 10K races follow a straightforward out-and-back course; the 5K completes it once, and the 10K completes it twice. The half marathon utilizes its own out-and-back course, repeated four times, with a 3 hour 30 minute cutoff for all participants. Medals are given to finishers, awards are presented, and series points are awarded. A best costume award adds a fun element to the event.
