Arc of Northern Virginia Team Challenge 5K

The Arc of Northern Virginia’s Team Challenge is a community fundraising race held on June 6, 2026, at Burke Lake Park in Fairfax Station, Virginia.

The Team Challenge has been held for more than four decades and features team-based competition alongside community participation.

Participants can choose between running and inclusive walking or rolling options. Teams typically consist of five to seven runners or up to seven walkers who work together to raise funds and compete for recognition. The venue at Burke Lake Park offers scenic trails and a community-centered atmosphere for both the 5K race and the 2K fun walk and roll.
