5k Runs 2026 - 2027

The findarace.com calendar lists hundreds of 5k races across the US every year - there's almost one for every day of the year. 5 km is one of the most popular race distances, and with a bit of training it's relatively achievable for most ages, shapes, and sizes - as a result, they make perfect family fun runs that multiple generations can take part in and enjoy.

A 5k race is also a perfect goal for a beginner or new runner who hasn't taken part in an organized race before - it's a great, fun introduction to the race day experience that’s a little easier than a 10k race. 5k races are also popular with more seasoned runners looking to keep their running short, sharp, and fast - we list the fastest and flattest 5km races across America (as well as the craziest and hardest).

Looking for 5k races tomorrow or this weekend? Sort the event list below by "Date" to see the races coming up soon, but please note many races don't accept on-the-day entries, and Organizers often stop taking bookings several days (and up to a week) before a race so they have time to organize race packs, courses, medals, water, etc.

So whether you want to pinpoint your first running goal, or you’re an experienced runner looking for a fast route to beat your 5k Personal Best (PB) check out our comprehensive 2026 - 2027 5k US race calendar below!
