Nailed It 5K Pumpkin Run

Get ready for a spooktacular start to your Halloween festivities at the Nailed It! 5K Pumpkin Run, hitting the streets of Kernersville, NC, on October 31, 2026. This family-friendly event, starting and finishing at Harmon Park in downtown Kernersville, offers a spirited 5K challenge on a rolling road course that winds through the heart of the city. Participants of all ages and abilities are encouraged to embrace the festive spirit by donning their most creative costumes, with exciting prizes awarded for the best male/female, best kids (under 12), best dog, and best group collaboration costumes.

The Nailed It! 5K Pumpkin Run kicks off with registration at 3:00 PM, followed by the 1-Mile Fun Walk at 3:30 PM, and the main 5K race at 4:00 PM.
