2027 Mother’s Day 5k, 10k & 1-Miler : Old Mill Park, Fredericksburg
This event offers three measured distances at Old Mill Park (2410 Caroline Street), with points that count toward the organizer’s Year-Long series and Spring Series. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person.

The course is fully paved and runs alongside the Rappahannock River. The 5k is an out-and-back route; the 10k completes the 5k course twice. The route includes a few small hills and is described as suitable for strollers and children. Walkers and strollers are explicitly welcome.
Participants receive a finisher’s medal, a technical (Drifit) event shirt, and chip timing. Live results are posted via Athlinks and can be accessed at the race using a QR code; final results with series points are published on the organizer’s site after the event. Photos taken by staff are posted by the Tuesday after the race.
The event benefits Gwyneth’s Gift Foundation, which raises awareness of CPR and the use of AEDs. Water stations are provided along the courses: two on the 5k and five on the 10k at approximate mile markers; Gatorade is available at some stations. Restrooms are located near the parking area. Packet pickup is available at the event and race day registration is offered, though shirt sizes cannot be guaranteed for late registrants.
