District 19 Race Series

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

This October, we celebrate the sixth annual District 19 Miler, 19K and 5K race series. District 19 is a dynamic race experience originally created to help DC runners reclaim our streets and reclaim our impossible.

🌟 Purpose and Community

From its first step, District 19 was never just a race—it was a call to reclaim space. Not just for speed, but for soul. Not just to run, but to remember why we move in the first place.

Now in its sixth year, District Running Collective invites you back to the streets for a deeper kind of marathon—one rooted in purpose, built on community, and powered by the people.

Here, pace is secondary. Presence is everything.

⏳ Historical Context

District 19 is a dynamic race experience originally created to help DC runners cope with the cancellation of the fall race season and long-distance race experience during the Coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

We chose the number 19 for our annual race series to continue to pay homage to those we’ve lost but also the tremendous perspective gained in the year 2020.

❤️ Dedicating Our Miles

Our miles are forever dedicated to you. For our city, our communities, and the culture. These miles are coming.
