All proceeds from the race go directly back to Valley Forge National Historical Park

Get ready to lace up your running shoes and conquer both hills and history at the 20th Annual Valley Forge National Historical Park 5-Mile Run! This iconic event, set in the breathtaking landscape of Valley Forge National Historical Park, promises a challenging yet exhilarating race experience like no other.

As the crisp April air fills your lungs, you'll set off on a 5-mile journey through the very grounds where American history was forged. The course winds its way through internal park roads offering a scenic backdrop steeped in the rich heritage of the Revolutionary War.

As you crest each hill, imagine the perseverance of General George Washington and his Continental Army, who endured the harsh winter of 1777-1778 in these very hills, turning adversity into triumph. Let their spirit inspire you as you push through fatigue and doubt, drawing strength from the echoes of history that surround you.

But it's not just the terrain that makes this race special—it's the sense of camaraderie and community that permeates every step. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a first-time racer, you'll find yourself surrounded by fellow runners, volunteers, and spectators alike, all united in a shared love of running and appreciation for this historic landmark.

Crossing the finish line isn't just about achieving a personal best—it's about celebrating resilience, determination, and the enduring legacy of Valley Forge.
