Lace up your running shoes, grab your best costume, and join us for one of Cleveland’s favorite fall traditions!
This spook-tacular run takes you through Edgewater Park with options for serious runners, casual joggers, and families who just want to stroll in costume. Costumes are strongly encouraged - we’ll have prizes for the best looks!
After you cross the finish line, stick around for a festive after-party with family-friendly games, DJ Brad Wolfe, food trucks, crafts, and face painting.
Why we run: Proceeds from the Halloween Run for Justice support the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Foundation’s community programs focused on expanding access to justice, empowering youth, and building a more equitable Cleveland. Every step you take helps make justice accessible for all. The Halloween Run has always been open to the public and we are thrilled to be named one of "7 Unique Things to Do in Cleveland, You Won’t Want to Miss" by Apartment Guide. Join us!
