Halloween Trick or Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 NEW JERSEY

Halloween Trick or Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 NEW JERSEY is held in Camden, New Jersey, on October 31, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K, the 5K and a family one-mile fun run all start together at 7:30 a.m.

An end-of-October date on the East Coast is close to perfect for road racing: cool at the start, rarely warm by the finish, and late enough that a summer of mileage has had time to settle into fitness. Dress for the mile you will be running in twenty minutes rather than the one you are standing in. The half marathon is the day's real test and asks for about twelve weeks of preparation with a weekly long run; the 10K and 5K need much less, and the family mile asks for nothing but a costume.
