Baltimore Running Festival

 Team RUN GBMC at the Baltimore Running Festival

Thank you for your interest in joining Team RUN GBMC. While we are incredibly appreciative of the support we have received in previous years, Team RUN GBMC is not fielding a team in this year’s Baltimore marathon. However, we do have a training group that meets regularly and can be followed on Facebook if you would like to do group workouts on Saturdays.

If you would like to learn more about other events that Gilchrist hosts, visit our Events page. There you will find information about our fundraising and remembrance events.

About the Event

Dubbed “The Greatest Running Event in Baltimore,” the festival is held yearly and includes a full marathon, half marathon, 5K and team relay. There is also a special category for racers who want to run both the 5K and half marathon. Over 20,000 runners and walkers travel routes through the scenic Inner Harbor waterfront area, historic Federal Hill and charming Fell’s Point. 

A number of charities form groups to participate in the Race for a Cause program, which is how Gilchrist/GBMC has participated in the past. Each charity group offers training programs for their participants. In addition to training for their race of choice, participants spend time raising funds and awareness for their charity.

It is an incredible event for the Baltimore community. From corporate sponsors to charities and incredible crowd support on race day, it is easy to see how the event has become the most celebrated running event in Baltimore.
