The shutdown shut us down on Oct 5, but we’re back with a modified race distance and new course. Our 20 Miler will now be a 10 Miler. The Janet Braunstein 5 Miler will remain a 5 Miler. This course is USTAF certified.

All finishers will receive our 2025 commemorative hoodie.


Work off those extra holiday calories at one of our most popular club races, the Turkey Burnoff 5 and 10 Mile race at Seneca Creek State Park in Gaithersburg. The course is scenic (double loop for 10 miles) and you’ll burn off that third helping of pumpkin pie on the gently rolling hills. The park deer occasionally make a cameo appearance and they don’t brake for runners! All runners need to be in the park by 7:50 AM.

The course has rolling hills while running across a dam and through the woods on paved roads. In addition to the 5- and 10-mile races, there is a free kids’ race.


Let us take you on a journey through more than 400 years of Black history at RUN RICHMOND 16.19. Choose between two scenic run-or-walk courses—a 16.19K (10mi) or a 6.19K (3.85 mi)—and join us on September 27, 2025.

Along our captivating courses you will encounter stunning historical sites and modern street murals, Black history course signs with educational video content, and well-placed food & water stops. Our free mobile app transforms your phone into an outdoor museum guide, narrated by two-time Oscar-nominated actor & humanitarian Djimon Hounsou.
