Start with your city. Open your metro above, or use the race calendar to filter by city and region. Towns outside the big metros often have their own city page with every upcoming race.
Check the sign-up cutoff. Some races close online registration a few days early, and prices step up as race day gets closer. The Register button goes to the official page, where the current price and deadline are shown.
Watch the weekend patterns. Saturday mornings are the default. Holiday 5Ks, turkey trots in November and New Year's runs add extra races, and charity 5Ks cluster in spring and fall. If this is your first one, our training guides and the pace calculator help you set a goal.
