Organiser's description

Dreaded Druid Hills 10K is back!

The course will be the same as last year.

Do you love running hills? Then this is the race for you!
The race begins at the Mansion House loop, winding its way past the Rawlings Conservatory, the Zoo entrance and then thru the Frisbee Golf Course. It's then in the back section of Druid Hill Park where the hills greet you head on! Not to worry, there's a water stop back there with a large presence of the Baltimore Pacemakers cheering you on & giving you that extra support. Reach the top of the last hill, then turn around and do it all again. No problem!

Our finish line festivities are ice cold watermelon, water & Gatorade - all in the shade.

In the past we have made this race with a shirt option but we are giving back to the running community by giving all entrants a race shirt at the non-premium price. This years shirt will be Mens & Women's Under Armour Tank Tops. Pint glasses for race finishers (in person finishers only) limited supply.

This race is a right of passage among the Baltimore running community & beyond. Bragging rights to wear the shirt, and then some!

One water stop at M2 & another at M4.5
