Event Overview

The Chick-fil-A 10k/5k is an annual running event held in Newport News, Virginia. The 19th edition of this event takes place at the Mariners' Museum and features multiple race options on fast, all-paved surfaces. Participants follow courses that travel through scenic locations including Lions Bridge, Riverside Drive, and areas along the James River.

The event offers three distinct distances:

  • 10 km

The 10 km and 5 km routes are USATF certified, providing a smooth and easy-to-follow path for both runners and walkers. These courses highlight the local landscape of the Mariners' Museum and the surrounding waterfront views.

In addition to the races, specific areas are designated for post-race activities, including a Family Fun Zone and a post-party. The event maintains a partnership with the Virginia Peninsula Foodbank to support meal provision for the local community. Participants have the option to contribute to this cause during the registration process or at packet pickup. The venue is located at 100 Museum Drive in Newport News.
