Graveyard Run & Walk

Registration

Graveyard 5k Run & Walk is a Halloween-themed race held at Elmwood Cemetery in Kansas City, Missouri (4900 E Truman Rd). The event offers a 5k course that takes place entirely within the cemetery grounds, blending running or walking with a cemetery setting. It’s pitched as a not-so-spooky run and supports fundraising for cemetery maintenance.

After completing the course, participants can enjoy beer tastings from local breweries, post-race fuel, and cemetery tours. Described as the seventh annual edition, the race highlights Elmwood Cemetery’s history, notable graves, and Civil War soldiers, creating a unique sport-meets-history atmosphere.
