The Office 5K, the wildly popular fun run celebrating the iconic sitcom “The Office,” returns to Scranton on Saturday, May 3, 2025, promising even more Dunder Mifflin-inspired fun and community spirit. Following a record-breaking 2024 event that drew over 1,500 registrants from around the globe, this year’s race is already off to a strong start with over 450 runners signed up internationally!

The 5K course will wind through Scranton, passing by familiar locations featured in the show. Walkers can enjoy a shorter, one-mile course with interactive activities along the way. Participants are encouraged to dress up as their favorite Office characters for a chance to win prizes.

The race kicks off at 1:00 PM on Saturday, May 3, 2025, at 523 Linden Street in Scranton, in front of Backyard Ale House. Pre-registered runners can pick up their race bibs, t-shirts, and race information at Cooper’s Seafood House (701 N. Washington Avenue) on Friday, May 2nd, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Race day registration and packet pick-up will also be available from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM at the starting line.

A post-race block party and awards ceremony will immediately follow the event. Prizes will be awarded for top finishers in various age groups, as well as a variety of costume categories, including Best Group Costume, Most Obscure Office Reference Award, and Best In Show.

Register by April 20th to guarantee your race t-shirt!  The pre-registration fee is $30, and the day-of registration fee is $40.
