About the race
The Paradise Springs 5k & 10k takes place on March 6, 2027 at Paradise Springs and Hemlock Overlook Park in Clifton, VA. The event offers both a live race and a virtual run option for those who cannot attend in person.
Distances
- 5k
- 10k, two laps of the 5k route
The course is a technical trail route that runs through Hemlock Overlook Park and down by the river. Runners should expect notable elevation changes and a technical rock section that can slow pace. Water stations are placed along the course: three stations on the 10k at approximately mile markers 2.3, 3.1, and 5.4, and one station on the 5k near mile 2.3; Gatorade is available at some stations. Restrooms are available in the winery.
Entries receive a glass of wine from Paradise Springs Winery, a finisher medal, a technical Drifit event shirt (shirts guaranteed for registrations before February 24), and chip timing. Registration fees are listed with early pricing through February 15 and a noted race-morning price increase.
The event partners with the John P. Mayhugh Foundation, a nonprofit focused on post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, and addiction. Awards are given to the top three men and women overall and to first-place age-group finishers in standard age brackets; overall top-three finishers are not eligible for age-group awards. Packet pickup and race day registration are available at the venue. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
