Registration for the Ron Shields Perry 5000 costs $0 to $20, making it an accessible option for runners and walkers in central Pennsylvania. Held in New Bloomfield on September 12, 2026, the event starts at 9:30 AM and offers two distances: a 1-mile option and a 5K. Whether you're looking for a shorter outing or a standard 5K effort, this race accommodates both. The low entry fee combined with flexible distance options makes it worth considering if you're in the area that weekend and want a straightforward running or walking event.

From the Race Organizer
In 2021, we dedicated the race to Ron Shields as he was always involved with running either with the road runners and help restart and coach the cross-country team at West Perry. In honor of him, we have renamed the Perry 5000 the Ron Shields Perry 5000. The 5k starts at 9:30am and the mile walk, and fun runs starts after the 5k is finished. Stick around afterwards for the street fair.
