Spring Third Winchester Battlefield 5k, 10k & Half Marathon
This event offers three distance options on a trail course at Third Winchester Battlefield in Winchester, VA. The route is a mostly light gravel dirt path. Distances follow looped laps: the 5k is one loop, the 10k is two loops, and the half marathon is three loops with an out-and-back detour on each lap. The half marathon has a completion time limit of 3:15.
Points from these races count toward the Year-Long 5k, 10k, Endurance and Back of the Pack series, and also toward the Spring Series. Walkers are welcome. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person.
Runners receive a finisher’s medal, a technical event shirt, and chip timing. Water stations are provided along each course: eleven stations on the half marathon at approximate mile markers 0.9, 2.1, 2.9, 4.35, 5.25, 6.45, 7.25, 8.7, 9.6, 10.8 and 11.6; five stations on the 10k at approximately 0.9, 1.6, 3.1, 4.0 and 7.0; and two stations on the 5k at approximately 0.9 and 1.6. Gatorade is available at select stations.
