Baltimore, US
Cupid's Crush, organized by the Baltimore Road Runners, is a challenging and scenic 5-mile road race through Druid Hill Park that passes near Druid Hill Lake and the Baltimore Zoo. Expect unpredictable Maryland weather and enjoy the Valentine's Day spirit with themed post-race refreshments, music, hot chocolate, and sweet treats. Free race photos will be available following the race.
This year's edition will be held on February 2, 2025. Race day start: 9:00 am (race start). Packet pickup: Saturday, February 1, 2025 at Falls Road Running Store (6247 Falls Road, Baltimore, MD 21209) from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm. Race day check-in begins at Lakeside Pavilion starting at 7:30 am. Awards will begin at 10:15 am at the pavilion.
Amenities: All runners who register prior to race morning will receive the coveted Cupid's Crush beanie. Valentine's-themed post-race refreshments will be available. Awards: top 3 overall male and female, overall male and female masters, top 2 in age groups (19 & under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+), and a special overall winner non-binary category.
Course: Scenic, rolling and winding throughout Druid Hill Park and around the Baltimore Zoo. The original course has been rerouted due to the lake closure; the second half remains hilly and challenging — this is not a PR course.
In the event of inclement or questionable weather, information will be sent via email prior to race morning. There are no refunds for cancellations on 02/02/2025; the make-up date is 02/09/2025 and no refunds will be issued should that date also be canceled. Proceeds benefit the Baltimore Road Runners Club.
