About The Race.
One mile road race on Loudoun Street in Historic Old Town Winchester, Virginia. This is the 34th annual event and will again serve as the RRCA Virginia State Championship race.
COVID-19 UPDATE: Please note that are making many changes to the race in order to comply with current COVID regulations. We are doing everything we can to insure a safe event — however, if you feel uncomfortable in a ‘live’ event of this size, or have any COVID symptoms, please do not attend. You can elect to receive a refund in that case.
NEW FORMAT: The race will now be run in waves of approximately 50 runners each. The Top 50 men will run first at 9:00, followed by the Top 50 women. The 3rd wave will be the next fastest times, men and women combined, followed by random heats of approximately 50 people. This will allow families to run together. See full schedule below.
