This page will be updated for the 2025 edition at the end of the year.
The 5th Annual Electric City 10K is the first major Capital District road race of the 2025 road race season, and we invite you to join us as we welcome in the spring with an energetic and fun atmosphere! It's staged from Mohawk Harbor, which is truly an incredible venue and serves as a phenomenal location for you to enjoy a racing experience.
*Previously held as a 5M, the race was changed to a 10K in 2023 due to the closure of the Sunnyside Rd Bridge.

REGISTRATION INSURANCE
Your registration is NON-REFUNDABLE unless you choose this optional registration insurance (per the deadline below).
For $12, you can insure your registration which provides for a no questions asked refund of your fee paid (not including the $12 nor the processing fee) that simply requires you email us at events@areep.com prior to the deadline of 11:59:59PM ET on Wed, 3/5. It will be refunded without having to provide a reason. This insurance does not apply for requests made after 12AM ET on Thur, 3/6. After that time, no refunds will be processed.
Registration Insurance can ONLY be purchased at the time of initially registering for the event.
If choosing the insurance, it is for your collective entry into all 3 events. If you desire to use the insurance, please note the following:
A festive atmosphere! Enjoy the upbeat music and announcing as we return to the roads! All participants (age 21+) get a ticket for a free beer at Druthers! There's also a timing split at halfway to provide live tracking, a delicious post run meal, and an all-around awesome experience! You even get your name printed on your bib (if you register by February 18). There is also an optional event shirt and headband.
The Top 3 Male and Female finishers will receive complimentary entry to any other AREEP owned event within the next 12 months. There are no other awards, although the results will show placings within 5 year divisions. There are no finisher medals.
The venue forbids pets from being on the property. (Service animals are permitted.) Strollers are not permitted in the race, itself, but they are allowed on the property.

We need help to make this race happen. Volunteers are primarily needed as course marshals, as well as helping with general staging. No prior experience is necessary.
The race finishes adjacent to the Rivers Casino/Landing Hotel courtyard. It has a sweet spectator viewing area and will be a rocking fun place to hang out post race!
