Capitol Hill Classic 10K, 3K and Fun Run
The Capitol Hill Classic is an annual set of road races held on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, at 425 C St NE. The event includes the following distances:
- 10K
- 3K
- Kids' Fun Run approximately 0.33 miles
Funds raised benefit the Capitol Hill Cluster School, a DC public school serving over 1,100 students. The event began in 1980; the 10K is described as the citys oldest 10K.
The 10K begins in front of Peabody Primary School, a few blocks from the United States Capitol. The course runs through Capitol Hill and passes Stanton Park, the Capitol, the Supreme Court, the Library of Congress, Lincoln Park, the RFK stadium campus, and the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail.
The 3K also begins at Peabody Primary School, follows East Capitol Street to Lincoln Park and returns to the start area.
The Fun Run is a single lap around Stanton Park, roughly one third of a mile. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
