Marathon Charity Cooperation partners with NRRL

The Marathon Charity Cooperation is placing two of its events on the NRRL schedule this year for the DC Region.  All MC-Coop races benefit their charity partners.

The first of these races will be the 5k that is part of the larger Alexandria Running Festival, now in its second year.  The Festival also features a Half-Marathon, Half-Marathon Relay and Kid's Run.  The courses go through the Holmes Run and Brenman Park area.  This scenic course is mostly flat and shaded providing a combination of trails, parks, and road running.  The 5k starts at 7:15am.

The popular Friends of the W&OD 10k takes place on July 30th and is a twilight race with a 6:30pm start time!  It's an out-and-back course from the Old Vienna Train Station to Hunter Mill Road.

NRRL runners receive $5 off the 5k race in May, and $10 off the W&OD 10k race in July!

We're happy to have these races added to the schedule and hope to see you out there!
