Grab your headlamp & let's hit the trails!

The Running Kind presents a rugged nighttime event, Blackout! This 10K course will traverse the technical, mountainous terrain covering over 1000ft of vert at South Mountain in Emmaus, PA. Things will kick off at dusk & runners will take on the night!

In 2025, we will offer a "Lights On” edition of Blackout. Runners can choose to complete the 10K starting at 5PM before darkness encroaches… or you can get crazy and do both!

Lights On 5PM / Blackout 6:30PM
