National Capital 10 Miler and Janet Braunstein 5 Miler

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 race will remain a 5 Miler. Join us at Hains Point for our 2025 Nat’l Capital 10 Miler and the Janet Braunstein 5 Miler. This course is certified.

All finishers will receive our 2025 commemorative hoodie. (Because we’ve been asked, no, the hoodie is not dated, so it does not have the date for the October race or the November race. The hoodie does reference the 20 miler. We know, not ideal for the 10 miler, but the shutdown has put us in not ideal circumstances.)

Prizes as follows. All gift cards will be for PR Running who graciously has donated prize money for the past 5 years.
