Fall Backyard Burn 5M/10M Trail Running Series-Race #1

Nestled in Reston, VA, this suburban park offers athletes a picturesque setting with a stunning lake, expansive open fields, pavilions, and an impressive trail network. The race course features primarily singletrack terrain, aside from the initial prologue, and boasts a 300-foot elevation change over a 5-mile loop. While the course isn't overly technical, runners will navigate some rocks and roots throughout. Participants can choose between a 5.1-mile single lap or a more demanding 10-mile double lap. During registration, athletes have the opportunity to support Homestretch, a local non-profit dedicated to helping families in the area. Your participation can help raise awareness and funds for their essential services. Consider making a donation as you gear up for the challenge.
