About the race
The Massanutten Monster 5K is a single-day running event held on November 8, 2026, at Massanutten Resort in Mc Gaheysville, Virginia (1822 Resort Dr, 22840, US). The course begins at the base of the resort, climbs to the top of the mountain with an elevation gain of over 1,000 feet, then returns downhill to the finish.
The race distance is 5K. The course layout includes a sustained ascent followed by a descent back to the starting area, so runners encounter both uphill and downhill sections on a short distance.
Registration opens on September 4, 2026, and closes on November 6, 2026. The registration fee is $40.00. Prize money is offered: the fastest male and the fastest female finishers each receive $200 in cash. Future editions of the event will include an additional bounty for anyone who breaks the course record.
