Abingdon, VA
Entry is $20 now and rises to $30 after Sep 12, 2026, so registering before then saves $10.
The course runs on the Virginia Creeper Trail, a converted rail corridor through Abingdon. The trail surface is packed gravel, the grade is gentle, and tree cover keeps it shaded through most of the morning. The race benefits a local literacy nonprofit, so the crowd skews toward families and people who came out for the cause as much as the clock.
