About Us

The Runner’s Source for the D.C. Area

RunWashington is your go-to resource for all things running in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. We serve the running community across the District, Northern Virginia and Maryland with comprehensive race coverage, a searchable event calendar, and stories that celebrate the athletes, coaches and volunteers who make this region one of the best places in the country to be a runner.

What We Do

Our race calendar is the most complete listing of running events in the region, from neighborhood 5Ks to destination marathons. Race directors can submit their events for free, and runners can browse hundreds of upcoming races by date, distance and location.

Beyond the calendar, RunWashington covers the local running scene with original reporting. We spotlight high school cross country and track and field athletes throughout Virginia, Maryland and the District. We profile the runners, coaches and community leaders who shape the sport in our area. And we share training tips, race recaps and news that matters to runners at every level.

Our Community

The D.C. area boasts one of the nation’s most vibrant running communities. From the monument loops and the Mount Vernon Trail to Rock Creek Park and the C&O Canal towpath, our region offers world-class routes and a year-round calendar of events. Whether you’re chasing a PR at the Credit Union Cherry Blossom Ten Mile Run, grinding through the Marine Corps Marathon, or toeing the line at a local club race, you’re part of a community that celebrates the sport in all its forms.

RunWashington is proud to be part of that community. We’re runners covering runners, and we’re committed to telling the stories that bring us together.
