Pawpaw 10 Miler
Powhatan, United States • 20 Sep 2025
Pawpaw 10 Miler and 5 Miler take place at Powhatan State Park in Powhatan, Virginia, pairing a park-centered trail race with the Pawpaw Festival. The events offer a 10-mile main course and a 5-mile option (plus hiker variants) that wind along the James River: riverfront flats, open fields, and shady singletrack with climbs to open terrain and past historic cabin ruins before finishing at the Equestrian Trailhead Parking Lot. The festival atmosphere features live music, a beer truck, and other activities. Proceeds support the Friends of Powhatan State Park; the race is part of the Virginia State Parks Adventure Series and sponsored by Dominion Energy.
