Columbia Classic 10K

The Columbia Classic 10K is a road running race staged in downtown Columbia, Maryland, and described as a return to the historic Clyde's 10K. The event is presented by the Downtown Columbia Partnership, Howard County Striders, and Feet First Sports. The course is a single 10 km loop on paved roadways that runs around the Columbia mall and through surrounding neighborhoods.

The race venue is the top lot of the Wincopin Parking Garage at 10201 Little Patuxent Parkway, where the start, finish, packet pick-up, and post race activities are located. There is no athlete parking at the top lot; parking is available on lower levels and in public spaces nearby. Organizers note that race parking is not permitted in the Whole Foods or Merriweather Lakehouse garages.

Runners must be at least 10 years old to participate. The event provides bib tag timing with the timing chip affixed to the back of the bib and posts results online in real time. There will be two water stations on course at approximately mile 2.2 and mile 4.4. Porta-potties are stationed at the start and finish area and there are no bathrooms on the run course.

Registration opens April 17, 2026. Entry includes a soft cotton long sleeve shirt, a finisher medal, and post race food. Participants should note that pets, baby joggers and other non-official wheeled vehicles are prohibited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
