Description
The shutdown shut us down on Oct 5, but we’re back with a modified race distance and new course. Our 20 Miler will now be a 10 Miler. The Janet Braunstein race will remain a 5 Miler. Join us at Hains Point for our 2025 Nat’l Capital 10 Miler and the Janet Braunstein 5 Miler. This course is certified.
All finishers will receive our 2025 commemorative hoodie. (Because we’ve been asked, no, the hoodie is not dated, so it does not have the date for the October race or the November race. The hoodie does reference the 20 miler. We know, not ideal for the 10 miler, but the shutdown has put us in not ideal circumstances.)
Prizes as follows. All gift cards will be for PR Running who graciously has donated prize money for the past 5 years.

- Overall Male and Female: 1st Place: $15, 2nd Place: $10, 3rd Place: $5
National Capital 20 Miler Awards

Directions to the race: The race will follow Ohio Dr. SW around Hains Point at East Potomac Park, Washington, DC. The starting line will be on Ohio Dr. SW, close to the entrance to the Golf range, at the Eastern Gate to East Potomac Park, facing the Washington Channel (you will see the Wharf on the other side of the water).
There is parking near the start first-come-first-serve and parking near the tennis courts on Hains Point. There is also street parking along Ohio Drive. Otherwise, you can park at Parking Lot B NPS on the Potomac side of Hains Point. If all parking lots are full, which is unlikely, continue on Ohio Dr SW for street parking after the bridge.
