13th Annual Baltimore 10-Miler Returns To Baltimore County

The 13th annual Baltimore 10-Miler will be one of the first in-person running events to return in MD after the pandemic shut down activities

BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD — Lace up those running shoes for Baltimore County and Corrigan Sports' 13th annual Baltimore 10-Miler planned for Saturday, June 5, in Hunt Valley. For the first time in the event’s history, the 10-mile race will be held in Baltimore County and will feature a picturesque and challenging course that starts and finishes at the Hunt Valley Towne Centre.

“Baltimore County is thrilled to partner with Corrigan Sports to host this year’s race and preserve this regional tradition,” Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski said. “Bringing this beloved event to beautiful Hunt Valley is the perfect way to showcase all of that community’s vibrant offerings and continues to demonstrate that Baltimore County is a premiere destination for sporting events like the Baltimore 10-Miler.”

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual event was in jeopardy until the county and Corrigan Sports collaborated to bring the regional event to Baltimore County. The race will be one of the first in-person running events to return in Maryland and is expected to accommodate more than 3,000 runners from 33 different states.
