From the Organizer
Join Us for Luck Stone's 4th Annual Run the Rock | Rockville 5K!
Get ready to conquer the quarry at one of the most unique race experiences around, just minutes from Richmond’s city center. Since first opening our gates to the running community in 2023, our Run the Rock 5K has grown into an incredible tradition, welcoming hundreds of runners, families, neighbors, and community members to experience our Rockville Plant in a whole new way: on foot.
Now entering its fourth year, this event is more than just a race. It’s an opportunity to connect with our community, showcase the place we call home, and invite others to see the energy and people behind our operation.
From conquering gravel hills and scenic quarry views to celebrating together at the finish line, race day is packed with fun for everyone — including local food vendors, family-friendly games & activities, awesome swag, raffles supporting a great cause, and more.
Whether you’re chasing a personal record, taking on the challenge with friends, or simply coming for the experience, we invite you to lace up, show up, and conquer the quarry. 👟
