About the Event

🎉 New Year’s Eve & New Year’s Day Fun Runs 🎉

December 31st – 8:00 AM – E.C. Glass High School
Close out the year strong with our New Year’s Eve Fun Run — your last chance to log 2025 miles! Run as much or as little as you’d like along the Virginia 10 Miler course and celebrate the end of another great year with friends and fellow runners.

January 1st – 9:00 AM – Riverside Park
Sleep in a little, then kick off 2026 with our New Year’s Day Fun Run! We’ll head from Riverside Park toward downtown, and when you reach the top of Monument Terrace, celebrate the new year with 26 push-ups or jumping jacks to symbolize the start of 2026.

Start the new year the best way we know how — running, smiling, and celebrating together!
