Bailey Bullock was just 16 years old when he passed away suddenly on May 12, 2021, after experiencing Sudden Cardiac Arrest. Bailey was a son, brother, friend, teammate, classmate, student, and athlete at The John Carroll School. He loved football, basketball, track, technology, volunteering, his friends, and most of all, his family. His life ended at 16. His impact did not. In the five years since Bailey's passing, his story has helped inspire a movement. Young hearts have been screened, hundreds have received CPR/AED training, thousands have been reached through education and awareness, and advocacy helped turn Bailey's legacy into action through the Bailey Bullock Act, strengthening cardiac emergency preparedness in Maryland schools. AND WE'RE NOT FINISHED. Proceeds from this 5K help support youth heart screenings, CPR/AED education and training, Sudden Cardiac Arrest awareness, and cardiac emergency preparedness. 💚 THIS YEAR, DON'T COME ALONE.

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

Who will be the last one standing? The Baltimore Road Runners Club is thrilled to bring a sanctioned backyard ultra to the Baltimore running community by partnering with race founder Mac McComas to present the 5th annual Mackyard Ultra! For those unfamiliar with backyard ultras, it is commonly referred to as a "last man standing" event. Runners will complete a 4.1667 mile course each hour until one person completes a lap (called a yard) by themselves. That person is the winner and only finisher of the race. The race will take place at Shawan Downs on their cross country course, so be ready to run on grass with plenty of ups, downs, twists, and turns to keep you engaged on each out and back lap.
