ABOUT

This page will be updated for the 2026 edition at the end of the year.
We are intentionally leaving the 2025 information for general reference.

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.

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.

Insurance for 29.3 CHALLENGE REGISTRANTS

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:

1. 3/5 is the deadline for a full refund. (ie. the EC10K deadline for reg insurance usage)
2. From 3/6 through 4/9, the total refundable insurance amount is reduced by $35.
3. The insurance expires on 4/9 (in the same fashion as for a H2H-only registration.)

AMENITIES

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.
