About the event

Spook Hill sold out yet again in 2023. Make sure you don't get left out of the 2024 event!  We'll again be using the scenic, traditional 4-mile hybrid road/Cross Country course that winds through historic Burkittsville (yes, that Blair Witch town), Boordy's South Mountain Vineyard, historic Burkittsville Union Cemetery, farmland owned by South Mountain Creamery, and the Distillery Lane Ciderworks' orchard.  Walkers welcome! Walkers will be untimed and travel through town, Boordy's vineyard, the cemetery, and farmland and return to the Ruritan. You'll get the same finisher's awards (and Spook Hill "specials" at participating establishments) as the 4-milers and you can explore the orchard on your own after our awards ceremony. Finisher's Awards for Runners and Walkers: Finishers will receive one of our traditional wine glasses AND a finisher's medal. Visit the participating wineries/cideries/eateries on the Spook Hill Tasting Trail after your run. Boordy Vineyards will be on-site offering tastings and sales. DLC, which is across the street from race HQ, will open at 9:45. Antietam Creek Vineyards, Orchid Cellar, and Willow Oaks are all expected back on the Spook Hill Tasting Trail in 2024! See the race website's Post-Run Page for details, hours, and dates of operation. Overland Timing is providing timing services.

Accolades:  Spook Hill was named by Competitor.com in 2014 as a "Must Do" fall race in the Mid-Atlantic Region.  Runner's World Magazine featured the race in 2015 and 2018! Join us to see what you've been missing! Race Date: Saturday, October 19, 2024. 0830 start time. Note: No late starts are allowed due to safety concerns and road opening schedules. Race maps can be viewed here: https://www.spookhill4mile.org/course.html We will meet or exceed any CDC, state, or local health department mitigation requirements in effect on race day. We ask that you not attend if you are in any way feeling ill. Note: No dogs (except certified service dogs at race HQ) are permitted on any race-associated property and no jogging/running strollers are allowed on the course. Walkers must register as such for the 3-mile event. All participants must be off the course by 0945. Runners (17 min/mile pace or faster) should be able to finish by 9:40, which is when our awards ceremony will start.  Limited refunds are available through 30 days prior to race day via your RunSignup. Within 30 days, there are no refunds for any reason - premiums are ordered and expenses have been incurred. You will be offered the opportunity to purchase race registration insurance through a third-party vendor during the registration process.
