Go for Bo! 2026

Go for Bo! 2026 is an athletic event held at the Stafford Regional Airport in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The event features a course that utilizes the airport runway and taxiway, providing a flat and fast surface for participants. The 5K route is USATF certified. This sunset run serves a charitable purpose, with proceeds supporting families and children in Bo, Sierra Leone, through partnerships that provide healthcare, education, and nutrition initiatives.

Participants can choose from several event options:

  • 5K
  • 1 Mile Fun Run
  • Tot Dash (open to children aged 6 and under)

Cash prizes are awarded to the top three male and female finishers in the 5K race. This event is also part of the Stafford Race Series, a collection of five races held throughout the year. Those who register by late August are guaranteed a race t-shirt. Packet pickup is available at local athletic stores and the airport in the days leading up to the event.
