10k runs are perhaps the most popular running events in the US. A 10k race (about 6.2 miles) is an achievable but challenging distance for a beginner looking to move up from 5k races and fun runs. However, a 10k is also an excellent distance for more experienced runners and is often used to increase endurance for longer distances.
Because 10k races are so popular, there are lots of them - and at findarace, you’ll find the most comprehensive list of 10k races from all across America. Choose from regular races to enter from the East Coast in California, to Florida and New York on the West Coast as well as plenty of runs in Texas, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and more.
So whether you're a regular 3-mile runner looking to step up to your first 10k or an experienced racer looking for a 10K PB, check out our comprehensive 2026 - 2027 10K US race calendar below. Filter by date, location, or race type, and you’ll find the perfect race for you.
What about a bigger challenge? The next step up is the Half Marathon, or why not set yourself a huge goal to smash by signing up for your first marathon?
