RACE DAY EVENT GUIDE
GEORGE WASHINGTON Parkway Classic10 MILE • 5K • KIDS DASH
8:00AM | APRIL 23, 2017 | ALEXANDRIA, VA
Presented by:
WELCOME TO GEORGE WASHINGTON MEMORIAL PARKWAY!
On behalf of George Washington Memorial
Parkway staff and the National Park Service we
welcome runners, walkers, and spectators to the fourth most visit national park site in the United States. The
parkway was designed for recreational driving and stops along this 25-mile roadway form a sweeping course
in American history from colonization to slavery sprinkled with marshes and other natural wonders. George
Washington Memorial Parkway is committed to providing outstanding recreational opportunities and facilitating
transformative experiences for visitors from all walks of life. During this year’s George Washington Parkway
Classic, Park Rangers and National Park Service volunteers will cheer on participants as they run on the scenic
roadway originally known as the Mount Vernon Memorial Parkway. Rumor, even has it that Buddy Bison will be at
the finish line!
The parkway which runs alongside the southern edge of the Potomac River from Mount Vernon to Great Falls
is a major commuter route for area residents. However, for a couple of hours in April every year, the George
Washington Memorial Parkway transforms itself into a pedestrian-friendly roadway. People of all ages and all
abilities are given an opportunity to enjoy morning’s early light as they run or walk towards the finish line in
Alexandria. Last year, as part of the National Park Service Centennial celebration, a group of GWMP employees—
the Blazin Bisons participated in the race. It was an unforgettable experience. I saw the beauty of the area with
new eyes and made friends along the way. By walking literally on the roadway instead of driving, my senses were
awakened to the natural world rarely experienced while in a vehicle and I gained a whole new appreciation for
George Washington Memorial Parkway.
Whether you are a participant or spectator, please take a moment to smell the air, listen to the wild sounds, and
enjoy the view because George Washington Memorial Parkway is a special place that has been set aside for your
enjoyment. Happy trails and see you at the finish line!

Kids Dash
We want to thank you for participating in this year’s
Parkway Classic. Your run helps support our local
chapter of the Boys and Girls Club raising funds for
their annual operating needs. We are also thrilled
that over 50 club members have trained for months
to participate in this year’s event!
The Parkway Classic is rooted in the Alexandria
community, produced by Alexandria’s preeminent
running retailer, Pacers Running, and with such noted partners as Alexandria’s own Port City Brewing, Sugar
Shack Donuts, the Old Town Boutique District, Jillian Keck/McEnearny Associates, the City of Alexandria,
Mount Vernon Estates, and the National Park Service.
We would like to invite you to not just run the race but walk our streets and explore our amazing city restaurants and shops, as featured by our partner the Old Town Boutique District and Visit Alexandria. Be sure
to check our race app for great deals from local boutiques, restaurants, and hotels.
On behalf of our staff, partners, vendors, volunteers, and beneficiaries, we wish you a wonderful race
experience at Alexandria’s Hometown Race!
