Enjoy autumn at the U.S. National Arboretum during FONA’s Fall 5K. This run or walk will take you past garden collections brightly colored with fall foliage, over tree-lined rolling hills, and along streams winding their way to the Anacostia River.
This race is not only scenic, but also safe and secure. All roads are closed to cars during this race so you can safely enjoy running or walking through this 451-acre urban green space. A professional race announcer will call out runners as they cross the finish line and there will be music before and after the event to get you in the groove.
Strollers and dogs are welcome, but dogs must stay on a 6′ non-retractable leash.
A 20% discount is available to all veterans, active duty, and reserve military members. Race t-shirts are included with registration while supplies last. Registration is free for children under 13 years old, but youth t-shirts must be purchased separately. Sign up today so you can rock the magnificent magnolia race t-shirt all fall and winter long!
