Dirty Wookie 10K & 5K
About the event
The Dirty Wookie 10K & 5K is a one-of-kind Halloween themed running event taking place in Downtown Reno featuring two unique courses and distances. Come in costume, if you'd like, and join a few thousand other runners/walkers for an unforgettable running experience through the city.
The 10K course (new to 2026!) is Reno's only point-to-point 10K. Starting at Reno Running Company – LAKESIDE the course winds through Virginia Lake, beautiful West Reno neighborhoods, Idlewild Park, and finishes at J Resort’s Festival Grounds in downtown Reno. Runners are encouraged to park at the J Resort, and purchase a shuttle ticket ($10) to be transported to the start. NO shuttle service is provided back to the 10K start line after the race, so if you choose to drive yourself, please plan accordingly. Walkers are welcome to register for the 10K but please be aware of the 2 hour cut off for the course (19:21/mile pace).
The 5K starts and finishes at J Resort’s Festival Grounds, and features a scenic out-and-back loop through the colorful paths of Idlewild Park. Walkers are very welcome and encouraged to join!
Both the 10K and 5K will begin at 9:00 AM.
Costume Contest! Around 10:30 AM, make sure you're near the podiums for the official Dirty Wookie costume contest! We will parade the eligible participants, then ask the crowd to vote for the favorite for a grand prize. Who will get the loudest cheer?! All ages are welcome, and you must be a registered 2026 Dirty Wookie runner to participate.
Both 10K and 5K courses are professionally marked, timed and supported to provide the world-class race experience Reno Running Company is known for. Make sure you stick around at the end to enjoy the Finish Line Festival to celebrate your run and kick off Halloween week in style. Whether you're competing for a top spot, walking, or just out to have fun, the Dirty Wookie is a Halloween tradition you can't miss!
