The Pemberton 24

The Pemberton 24 is a unique 24-hour running event held in Salisbury, Maryland, featuring a series of 5K trail runs in The Pemberton Park trail system. Starting Friday evening, a 5K race begins every hour on the hour for 24 hours, allowing participants to run as many 5Ks as they choose, either solo or in four-person teams. The event emphasizes endurance and strategy, with points awarded for each completed 5K, placement, and night runs. Runners can rest and socialize between races at designated camp areas. The race is cupless, requires headlamps for night runs, and fosters a supportive, festival-like atmosphere with aid stations stocked with refreshments and surprises.
