Run Your Ice Off 5k - Chambersburg
The Run Your Ice Off 5k is a chip-timed road race held as part of the Chambersburg IceFest on Sunday, January 31, 2027. The event is a USATF certified 5 km out-and-back course that includes several sections on town streets and the local rail trail. The published route begins on W King Street, proceeds east toward N Main Street, follows South Main Street to the Square, turns onto 30 West, then onto the Rail Trail to a turnaround before returning via King, Hood, and Commerce streets back to the Rail Trail for the finish.
The event accepts walkers and allows well-behaved pets. Timing is provided using individual timing chips; runners must wear the chip on their shoe and their bib on their chest. Finish times are recorded by chip but awards are determined by gun time. First overall male and female receive awards; male and female age groups award the top three places in each bracket. Cash prizes of $100 are offered to the first place man and first place woman.
Proceeds benefit Chambersburg IceFest, the Leadership Franklin County Alumni Scholarship Fund, and local nonprofit organizations. Entry fees are $25 for the early period, which includes an XS-XL long sleeve T-shirt, and $25 in the later period without a T-shirt; 2XL and 3XL shirts are available for a small additional fee. Registration policies note there are no refunds for cancellations or weather-related changes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
