I realize that most folks on this site are running long distance races primarily, but I wanted to share some smaller lowkey local races. My 6 year old son is starting to show some interest in running and I love these small lowkey races for him. He doesn’t get intimidated by the big field at these small local races.
There are not that many 1 mile races in Baltimore regions, mostly 1 mile fun walk/run that are not timed.
The race is put on by Annapolis Striders, they put together some of my favorite local races such as Annapolis 10 miler, B&A trail half marathon. I would join this club except they are a bit far from me so I run with Baltimore Road Runners Club.
This race is held at Severna Park High School track, ample parking spaces, race day packet pickup only. They do have bathrooms available, real bathrooms not Porta pot. The race started exactly at 8 am with the youth heat. Followed by adult heats from slower expected finish time to the fastest heat going last.
I do believe they have age group awards, my son and I are not fast enough to win but for those that are interested in awards.
My son and I had a great time, I enjoy watching my son giving his all during races.
