The Damage Was Extensive
We regret to inform you of our cancellation of this Sunday's 20th annual DCRRC National Capital 20 & 5 Milers due to extensive damage to the George Washington Parkway bike trail caused by last week's hurricane.

We have been unable to secure permission for an alternate course from the National Park Service or local police despite extraordinary efforts of race directors Chuck Evans and Bob and Delabian Thurston. We are very disappointed that neither race can be held. We thank all of you who had planned to run or volunteer on Sunday. We are very sorry that we can't hold the race. It's a proud DCRRC tradition.

All registration fees will be refunded. For those who paid by credit card, your card will either not be charged (if you registered in the last few days) or you'll see a credit for the same amount.

For those who paid by check, your check will be destroyed, as it was not cashed.

As an alternative, the Saturday Long Run group of DCRRC is meeting at Iwo Jima on Saturday morning (9/27) at 7:00 for a 19 mile run. Please join us! You'll have a group to run with and still get in your long run. (However, parking at Iwo Jima is EXTREMELY limited so please plan to get there early or park a distance away in the neighborhood.)

Please e-mail the President of DC Road Runners if you have any questions.
