Half Donkey (Half/10k/5k)
Half Donkey takes place on March 6, 2027, at Jones Point Park in Alexandria, VA. All distances start and finish at Jones Point Park beneath the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and follow an out and back route on the paved Mount Vernon Trail along the Potomac.
The course stays on the paved trail with the river beside runners for most of the route. There are no road closures and no traffic to cross on the course.
Distances
- 13.1 miles Half marathon
- 6.2 miles 10K

Every entry includes a race shirt, a finisher medal, chip timing and results, aid stations on the trail, and live tracking via Geo.Racing. Awards are given to the top three men and top three women at each distance.
Walkers are welcome at every distance. After finishing, participants can walk about a mile north into Old Town, where an afternoon St. Patrick's Day parade takes place. Parking at Jones Point Park is limited and Old Town fills early on parade day. The trail remains open to other users; runners are asked to keep right and pass on the left.
