Kindness 5K - York

Kindness 5K - York is held in Springfield Township, in York County, Pennsylvania, on November 7, 2026. The single format is a 5K (3.1 miles) starting at 9 a.m., open to runners, walkers and families of all ages in a relaxed, community atmosphere.

Races with this feel are a good way to bring someone new into running. Nobody is out of place at the back, and a walk-run approach covers 3.1 miles comfortably in under an hour. If you are already training, the format still gives you something: run it as a controlled hard effort, then jog a mile or two afterward with whoever you brought along, and you have a full session plus company.
