Racing in Virginia

Virginia runs a year-round race calendar, so there’s almost always a race near you. The calendar is busiest in September, October, and November, with races most often held in Williamsburg, Virginia Beach, Richmond, and Fredericksburg.

Races in Virginia range from the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah Valley in the west through rolling Piedmont hills to the flat Tidewater region and Chesapeake Bay coastline in the east. That spread covers mountain trail races, rolling midstate courses, and flat coastal runs.

Conditions vary widely by region across Virginia, so weather lives where it’s accurate — each race page shows its typical race-day high, low, and rain chance from NOAA climate normals for that venue and date.
