About Bel Air Town Runs
Signature events include the Bel Air Town Run in the fall and holiday-season runs like the Turkey Trot. Courses generally start and finish on or near Main Street with routes through surrounding neighborhoods and the Ma & Pa Trail.
Local schools, running clubs, and downtown businesses sponsor stations along the course, and the post-race scene on Main Street is a big part of the appeal.

Insider Tips
- Register early — the largest events (Turkey Trot, Town Run) sell out.
- Street closures typically start 30–60 minutes before race time.
- Post-race breakfast at any Main Street café is part of the ritual.
