About the Event

Come join Women's Distance Festival 5K, a race for women runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. 

This race is part of the Maryland RRCA's Women's Distance Festival Series.

Run After the Women 5K starts 15 minutes after the WDF 5K race.

Both races run the same 5k course starting in Bluemont Park. This is a fast course on a paved trail.  Note that due to construction at the Bluemont tennis courts, there will be a minor detour.

The events are part of the DCRRC's Bunion Derby Series; for more information/rules, visit the race series rules page.

Race Director(s):   Paul Ryan and Mari Diaz

About Arlington

Learn more about the host city, Arlington.

Scenic view of

Arlington forms part of the urban conglomeration around Washington, D.C. - inside the beltway. In Northern Virginia, and directly across the Potomac River from D.C. proper, Arlington is one of America's most densely populated regions. It has a land area 26 sq mi (67 km2) and a population of 230,000. Despite its density, Arlington mixes the best of both big city and suburban environments. Like the greater Washington area, Arlington has grown over the last several decades in part due to growth of the federal government.
