Interval Training Program (ITP) Registration Now Open!!

Click here to register now for the 2025 Interval Training Program (ITP) with Reston Runners! Registration closes June 15th.


NEW: Expanded Distance Options Offered on Saturdays

Starting on May 17th, the Club will offer both 3-mile and 10-mile distance options on Saturdays, in addition to the classic 5-mile distance. The 10-mile option can be done by running two loops of the marked five mile course, and self-starting at 7 am or the appropriate time allowing them to finish around 9 am.
Our aim in asking the 10-mile runners to start earlier is to preserve the cohesion in finishing time of the group for Saturday post-run breakfasts.  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. For more information on this change, see Expanded Distance Options

RESTON RUNNERS          

Reston Runners is based in Reston, Virginia and is a proud member of the Road Runners Club of America. We are one of the largest running clubs in Northern Virginia with a diverse range of athletic talent. Many new club members are training for their first 5K or 10K. Others are experienced runners who have run competitively and have completed dozens of marathons and ultramarathons. We are passionate about running (and walking) and strive to be fun and inclusive. As our name "Reston Runners" implies--we are a running club. However, we also have a very active group who prefer to walk. Our weekend events include both a run and a walk course.

Come join us for a group run on Saturday or Sunday. Become an active member to enjoy the many benefits of our community, friendship, social events, fitness tips, and opportunities to volunteer and give back.
