SWAG: We have wine bottle-stopper race medals for the first 470 registrants. Register before 9/21 and you'll get a race medal, Spook Hill tee-shirt and custom race bib (with Wine Trail coupons!) that will be mailed via USPS in early October. Those registering on or after 9/21 may have to wait until after the event has ended to receive shirts, but your medals and bibs will be mailed as registrations are received beginning in early October).
Opt out of the shirt option and save $10.
Wine Trail Partners: DLC, Antietam Creek Vineyards, Orchid Cellar and Willow Oaks will all be offering discounts/specials to our participants again this year even though we've gone virtual! Your race bib will have ticket stubs to redeem at each of these locations.
Registration is now OPEN.
You'll have to wait until at least 2021 to experience for yourself in-person why we were again ranked one of the top runs in the country by

National Acclaim: In 2014, the Spook Hill Cider & Wine 4 Mile Run gained national attention with Competitor.com naming us a "Must Do" fall race in the Mid-Atlantic region!
Spook Hill appeared in the October 2015 edition of
Runner's World magazine, in the Races & Places feature.
Also in 2015, Fleet Feet Sports in Baltimore ranked us the
#1 October race to do in Maryland!

Here is an unsolicited email from a 3 year Spook Hill participant:
"This run is without a doubt, the most delightful little race in Maryland. Thank you so, so much for a wonderful event--- Kudos all around. From arrival to the ease of parking (very nice parking attendants to guide you to your spot) a very organized, efficient packet pick-up, and a great DJ to warm you up pre-race. And who wouldn't love a beautiful wine glass for race swag!?
The course is just challenging enough for the elite, and manageable for the middle-of-the-pack and brisk walkers to feel like a morning well-spent! A fall jaunt thru vineyards and orchards is perfect.
My third year running and each year it just gets better and better. Everyone does an outstanding job and makes the whole experience an event not to be missed. From start to finish this run is just darn fun!
Thank you so much again, and look forward to seeing you all again next year,
Cheers!
