The Van Metre 5K Run was established in 1992 to benefit Children’s National Hospital. The event also includes a One Mile Fun Run/Walk inviting everyone from serious runners, occasional joggers and walkers of all skill levels to participate. To date the Van Metre 5K Run has raised over $2.75 million dollars in support of Children’s National.

Race day activities include an interactive warm up for the kids, arts and crafts and face painting. The post-race celebrations include cash prizes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place overall male and female runners and additional prizes are presented to the top two male and female runners in every age group. There are a variety of other raffle and door prizes, including prizes for our social media contests! Refreshments and snacks are fresh fruit, granola, muffins, donuts, and cupcakes to a complimentary slice pizza for everyone in attendance. 

The Van Metre 5K Run provides a USATF certified course and uses a Chrono Track race timing system with disposable D-tags. From corporate teams to families with strollers and dogs, there is something fun for everyone! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @VM5KRUN for additional race related updates such as tips on how to improve your 5K time, best stretching practices and a Spotify playlist to make your run even more exciting!

We are continually grateful for the generosity and support of our participants, sponsors, partners and volunteers who help make this such a special and successful event year after year.
