About

Spooktacular 5K and Fun Run - NJ takes place in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, on October 25, 2026. The 5K starts at 9:00 a.m. and a 1-mile fun run follows at 10:00 a.m., in a Bergen County town a short drive from New York City.

An hour between the two starts leaves room to do both: race the 5K, recover while the field regroups, then jog the mile with a child or a friend. Taken on its own, the 5K is the classic entry-level race distance, reachable on three runs a week for a month, and the classic mistake is still going out too fast. Note your target mile split before the start and hold yourself to it in the opening minutes.
