About the Yorktown Battlefield 10-Mile Run & 5K Run/Walk
The course follows the battlefield's tour roads, closed to traffic for the race. It starts at the historic Surrender Field and heads out through woods, meadows, fields, and creeks before looping back. The terrain is mostly flat with some rolling stretches along the way. It is a certified course and part of both the Peninsula Track Club and Hampton Roads Super Grand Prix series.
Packet pickup and race-day registration both happen at York High School on the morning of the race, wrapping up before the start. Pizza and refreshments are set up there after you finish.
