International Women's Day Endurance Celebration

International Women's Day Endurance Celebration : Ashburn, VA

The event is a choose-your-own-challenge day at Beaverdam Reservoir Park focused on movement, mutual support, and participation without emphasis on speed or comparison. The course circles Beaverdam Creek and consists of a 7.5-mile loop with roughly 300 feet of elevation gain.

The trail surface is varied: a mix of fire road and singletrack, with more rugged forest trail on one side and more developed sections with boardwalks on the other. Participants may complete one or multiple loops; support on the course is available through sunset for those who choose to continue.

Course support includes snacks and electrolytes, water, and basic first aid supplies such as bandages and moleskin. The event centers women but notes that men are welcome to volunteer as course support. The activity is free to attend.

Participants are responsible for their own risk. If winter weather is possible, the organizer will scout the course the week before the event to confirm conditions. The location listed is 22211 Water Vista Drive, Ashburn, VA, and the route follows the Beaverdam Reservoir Park area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
