Join us Sunday, September 27, 2026 for the annual Charm City Run 20-Miler on the Torrey C. Brown (NCR) Trail. This race is perfect for runners training for a fall marathon as it lines up well in training blocks for Baltimore, Steamtown, Chicago, Marine Corps, Richmond, and many other popular races. The course is loved for its gentle downhill profile, 6 aid stations along the way (PLUS indoor restrooms at Monkton Station!), and tree coverage almost the entire way. The NCR Trail is a hardpacked gravel surface.
Please Note: The entry fees DO NOT include one-way bus transportation from the parking area in Cockeysville to the start line in Freeland. If you would like to purchase bus transportation you may do so during registration for $12.60. Bus transportation can not be added on race day.
The Charm City Run 20-Miler has a course time limit of 5 hours (15:00/mile).
