What better way to start the new year than to get in shape and run a local race! Take home a finishers medal, race t-shirt, and maybe even some prize money for all your hard work! Below is a list of upcoming races in the Columbia area, organized by month. Keep in mind that the price of registration depends on how early you register and race distance you choose. A lot of these races have kids runs too, usually in the 1 mile to 5K distance.
