Down The Stretch Track Fest

Down The Stretch Track Fest is a track celebration!

A distance-focused track meet at George Mason University will feature community-to-pro-level races on Friday evening, May 17th, in a festive atmosphere.

Aslin Beer, New Balance merch, a DJ spinning music all night, and announcers keeping you up-to-date on the action. See some of the best runners in the area and celebrate distance running in the DMV.

Featuring special guest Alan Webb and introducing the Webb Mile! Alan is a Reston, VA native and former American Record holder in the mile. We will honor him by naming the mile “The Webb Mile.”  If a man goes under 4:00 in the mile or a woman goes under 4:40, we will be raffling off a pair of New Balance shoes (or two!).

Offering a free youth mile (13 & under) with the purchase of $5 GA tickets. Register at the meet (must be signed up by 7:45 pm)

Join us and grab a PR in the mile, 5k, or 10k. Select heats will be under the lights; there will be pacers throughout the evening in all races. USATF-sanctioned and professionally timed – get your last chance qualifier. All ages are welcome to race.

Entry Fee: $40 includes a complimentary beer from Aslin or another beverage. Can run multiple events.

Spectator GA Tickets:  $5—If you are not an athlete, coach, pacer, or volunteer, you need a GA ticket!
