From the Organizer
The 2026 Greater Clarksburg 10K is back for its 30th year! We are excited to have everyone back this year and need your help to reach our goal of 500 race participants. Due to the continued renovations going on in Downtown Clarksburg this year, the race will take place at the Veterans Memorial Park again, starting from the baseball fields. Please watch our Facebook page for all updates!
We are very excited to give back to our community with your participation in this year's race. Portions of all 10K race entries will be donated to the Mountaineer Food Bank for Harrison County School Students.
We will be hosting the 3rd Annual Georgia Hatfield 5K Race in place of the traditional 2 Mile.

From Endurance Grid
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
