Vampire Run 2026 : Season 7 (Spellbound)

Vampire Run 2026 is a Halloween-themed 5K run/walk held in Covington, Georgia, with both an in-person event and a virtual option called Spirit Runners. The event takes place at Legion Field, 3173 Mill Street, Covington, GA, on October 24, 2026. It was created in 2020 and is presented in memory of the organizer’s parents who died of cancer. Net proceeds support Blood Cancer United (formerly The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society).

The in-person race is a certified, timed USATF 5K and is a Peachtree Road Race qualifier. The live route passes many filming locations and includes more than 20 marked photo spots, some staffed by volunteers. Spirit Runners receive a bib, medal, and finisher shirt; packages are shipped after the live event.

Awards are given by overall placement and by age groups, including overall women and men and age brackets from under 10 through over 70. The event also includes a costume contest and team fundraising options. Organizers note that displayed prices include taxes and fees and that the event is run by a not-for-profit organization, with donations tax deductible.
