Join us for the return of this “revolutionary” race! This unique event lets participants choose their allegiance: Team Red, rallying behind the infamous Benedict Arnold, or Team Blue, inspired by the steadfast Marquis de Lafayette.
The Friend of Foe 5k takes place at Osbourne Landing, where a pivotal naval engagement occurred during the Revolutionary Way in 1781. You can almost still hear the cannons… or is that the start of the race?
Arnold and Lafayette will cheer you on until the finish. Whether you run for glory, camaraderie, or simply to enjoy a beautiful and historic setting, the Friend or Foe 5K promises a mix of fitness, fun, and living history.
As you begin training, decide for yourself: are you a friend or foe?
The VA250 Mobile Museum Experience, “Out of Many, One,” will be onsite to share Virginia’s foundational role in the birth of the nation. Check it out while you’re at the park!
