Trick or Trail 5k is a running race on October 17, 2026 in Laurens, SC, with an entry fee of $35.
Get ready for a spooktacular run through the heart of Laurens! The Trick or Trail 5K is a Halloween-themed adventure that blends road racing with trail running and a whole lot of fun.
The race kicks off in Collyar Park, where ghosts, goblins, and ghouls of all speeds take off down the road to stretch out the pack. After a fast and spirited start, runners will veer into the winding trails of the Joe R. Adair Outdoor Education Center, where nature meets mystery. Expect twists, turns, and maybe a few surprises lurking in the woods!
Once you’ve conquered the trails, it’s back to the pavement for a fast finish that rockets you back into Collyar Park, just in time to cross the line with flair. Costumes are encouraged, and prizes will be awarded for creativity, speed, and spirit!
Whether you're chasing a PR or just out for a hauntingly good time, the Trick or Trail 5K is the perfect way to celebrate the season. Run it. Walk it. Rock it in costume. Just don’t miss it!
Every finisher will receive a medal that will get you a half price drink at Great Crepes and More! located on the square in downtown Laurens that morning!
Awards for top finisher and best costume so be fast or be scary! (or funny, we like funny)
🛍️Head down to the square after the race for a festive atmosphere featuring local vendors, treats, and fun for the whole family!
