About the PNC Alexandria Half
The course starts at City Hall and heads out along the George Washington Parkway before turning back, so you get the same riverside stretch in both directions. The finish drops you into a waterfront park in Old Town, where a beer garden and photo backdrops are set up in the post-race area.
Packet pickup is handled through Pacers Running in the days before the race, and there is no race-morning pickup option, so plan accordingly. After finishing, the crowd gathers in Oronoco Bay Park rather than at the finish line itself, which keeps things from getting congested at the chute.

The PNC Alexandria Half has been held every year since at least 2020. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
