Cupid's Crush 5 Miler : Baltimore (February 15, 2026)
The Cupid's Crush 5 Miler is scheduled for February 15, 2026 in Druid Hill Park, Baltimore, with the meeting point at 900 Druid Park Lake Dr, MD 21217. The event offers a single distance of 5 miles with separate entry categories for Baltimore Road Runners Club members and non-members.
Organizers rescheduled the race to this date due to weather and course conditions. No refunds will be issued in the event of a cancellation on the original race day, and no refunds will be issued should the alternative date be canceled. Proceeds benefit the Baltimore Road Runners Club, its youth scholarships, and several nonprofit partners.
The course runs through Druid Hill Park and around the Baltimore Zoo. The original route was rerouted because of the lake closure; the second half remains hilly. The course is described as scenic, rolling, and winding and is not intended as a personal record course.
Pre-race packet pickup is offered on the Friday and Saturday before the race at Falls Road Running Store. Amenities for registered runners include a premium beanie guaranteed to the first 350 registered prior to race morning, free race photos, Valentine's themed post-race refreshments, music, and custom slate awards. Awards cover overall and age group categories, masters, and a new overall non-binary category, and the event lists $500 in prize money.
