About the Event

Experience the vibrant energy of Washington D.C. as you run or walk through its historic streets during our scenic 5k and 10k races. Perfectly situated near the Nation's Capital, these routes offer runners a unique blend of urban charm and natural beauty.
The 5k course winds through bustling neighborhoods, past iconic landmarks, and along tree-lined avenues that provide a gentle yet invigorating run. The 10k extends this journey, offering longer-distance enthusiasts an opportunity to explore more of the city's diverse landscape while still maintaining a predominantly flat terrain for comfort and speed.
Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting your fitness journey, our event welcomes all participants—walkers are encouraged to join in as well. This race is not only about reaching a finish line but also about enjoying the surroundings that make Washington D.C. one of America's most visited cities.
