Join us for a breathtaking experience at Lake Accotink with our scenic routes that promise an unforgettable day of running and walking. We welcome walkers and strollers to join us for this event, making it an inclusive affair for all participants. Runners will receive a coveted finisher’s medal, a technical (Drifit) event shirt, and enjoy the thrill of a chip-timed event. For those unable to attend on race day, we now offer a virtual run option. In partnership with the EOD Warrior Foundation, proceeds from the event will support wounded, injured, or ill EOD warriors, their families, and the maintenance of the EOD Memorial.
The course offers an out-and-back trail run on the south side of the lake for the 5K, while the 10K includes both the north and south sides. The half marathon covers 5 miles on the north side before returning and completing the 5K route. With about 50% of the half marathon route on pavement, runners will enjoy a varied and exciting terrain throughout the race.
