Race in the morning, parade in the afternoon. All three distances start and finish at Jones Point Park, under the Woodrow Wilson Bridge, and run out and back on the paved Mount Vernon Trail along the Potomac. The course is flat and fast, with the river beside you most of the way, and there are no road closures and no traffic to cross.
Finish, collect your medal, and walk about a mile north into Old Town for the Alexandria St. Patrick's Day Parade, which steps off at noon. Bring your family and make a day of it.
Every runner is tracked live on Geo.Racing, so your people can wait in Old Town and know exactly when to head down to the finish.
Start times: Half marathon at 8:00 AM, 10K at 8:30 AM, 5K at 9:00 AM. Packet pickup opens at 7:00 AM at the park. The starts are staggered so every distance finishes well before the parade.
Every entry includes: a race shirt, a finisher medal, chip timing and results, aid stations on the trail, and live tracking. Awards go to the top three men and women at each distance.
Good to know: walkers are welcome at every distance; half marathon walkers should plan to finish by 3:00 PM. Parking at Jones Point Park is limited and Old Town fills up early on parade day, so carpool or come by bike. The trail stays open to others, so keep right and pass on the left.
