Join us for the 25th running of our race series at the historic Grand Caverns Park in Grottoes, VA. The 5K race series offers a "flat and fast" course in & around the park.

This is a CERTIFIED 5K race with a twilight start (6:00 PM).

The 1-Mile fun run / wallk stays within the park along the pictureque trail. One Mile starts approximately 5 minutes after the start of the 5K.

All proceeds will go towards the purchase of a new children's playground at the park.

We're a boutique size race series, but we have a maathon-style fun time!!!

Event details and schedule

Packet pickup will begin at 4:45 PM the day of the race. Please park in the first lot on the left (pass the entrance booth). The registration table, race start, etc. will all be up along the upper parking lot (right of the cottage).
