Weekly and Monthly Events

The Saturday Run

We host social runs every Saturday in downtown Fredericksburg. Runs start at the corner of William Street and Princess Anne Street, diagonally across the intersection from Hyperion Espresso, near the museum’s north entrance, 907 Princess Anne St.

We start on the hour: Labor Day starts our 8am season; Memorial Day starts our 7am season. Be there 10 minutes early for announcements and for our weekly group photo.

The standard course is 6 miles, but some folks run a 3 mile route and others do their own thing completely. See some of our routes. While we don’t run the route as a single group–because there are so many paces and distances–we almost always have enough people in attendance to buddy up new folks with someone looking to do a similar pace and distance. We REALLY can accommodate almost any pace or distance–so please don’t hesitate to come out, even if you are fairly new to running!

Afterwards many of us hang around for coffee and chat.

 

The SUMMER TRACK SERIES

Our family friendly Summer Track series runs June 2-July 28, from 6-7:30pm every Tuesday in June and July. All levels, ages and abilities are welcome and encouraged! We will have water and watermelon and different fun things to indulge yourself in while we get it done in the heat at the James Monroe High School Track! Come a little early to sign up. And do warm up as we will try to start as close to 6pm as possible every week. Tell your friends! This is a free community event and all are welcome. We will host 4 events every week that will include a 100 meter 6 and under kids race. It will be the second event each week to give the kids time to get ready.
