Herrold Run (also known as Harrold Run) is a tributary of the Susquehanna River in Snyder County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 2.1miles long and flows through Union Township. The watershed of the stream has an area of 0.79sqmi. The stream is relatively small and the stream is crossed by at least one bridge. Two schools historically existed in the stream's vicinity. Its drainage basin is designated as a Warmwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery.
Herrold Run begins on a hill in Union Township. It flows southeast for a short distance before turning east-southeast and entering a valley. After several tenths of a mile, the stream turns southeast for several tenths of a mile. It then turns south-southeast, entering the census-designated place of Port Trevorton. A few tenths of a mile further downstream, the stream turns southeast, crossing US Route 11/US Route 15. It then continues in the same direction for a short distance before reaching its confluence with the Susquehanna River.

In the late 1960s, civil engineer Stanley K. Hampsell found that although Herrold Run was referred to as "Harrold Run" on United States Geological Survey maps, locals have always spelled is as "Herrold Run", and never as "Harrold Run". He discovered official records at the Snyder County Courthouse referring to Herrold Run by name; these records dated to December 1864.
Historically, there were two schools in the vicinity of Herrold Run. They were known as the "Herrold Sch." and the "Upper Herrold School".
In May 2011, a $243,451 project to replace a bridge over Herrold Run with a box culvert and improve the adjacent road was begun. On July 7, 2011, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation issued a statement saying that it would open the bridge the next day.
