We are now experimenting with 3-mile and 10-mile Saturday run options, in addition to maintaining the classic 5-mile Saturday distance. The 10-mile option can be done by runners doing two loops of the marked five mile course, and self-starting at 7 am or the appropriate time allowing them to finish 10 miles around 9 am. The three-mile option can be done by runners turning around at a 1.5-mile point marked on the five-mile course, and retracing their steps back to the start.

Also note the annual Valentine‘s Day Prediction Run.

Join fellow runners and walkers for breakfast at the Reston Wegmans Market Café.

July 19, 2025 at 5:00pm the club will host our annual summer picnic.
