Registration for the Dulles Greenway’s first annual race, Run the Greenway, is now open. The inaugural race will take place on Saturday, May 1, 2021 and start at the Dulles Greenway’s Mainline Toll Plaza. Runners can choose a 5K or 10K distance, there will also be an 800-meter Kids Fun Run and a virtual race option.
Race participants will join their community in celebrating the Dulles Greenway’s 25 anniversary of connecting Loudoun County to the Washington Metropolitan region.

All proceeds from Run the Greenway will benefit Loudoun County charities, including ECHO, Loudoun Abused Women’s Shelter, Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, Dulles South Food Pantry, Help for others, The JK Community Farm, Legacy Farms, Loudoun Cares, Step Sisters, Ashburn Volunteer Fire Rescue Department, The Arc of Loudoun, All Ages Read Together, Loudoun Ballet and Team Mathias.
“We are excited to welcome the region’s runners and their families to the first annual Run the Greenway race,” said TRIP II CEO Renée N. Hamilton. “We are honored to partner with and invest in local organizations that are making positive contributions to our community.”
