Ridge Reaper 10K
The Ridge Reaper event offers trail races at Bull Run Marina on the Bull Run Occoquan Trail. The course includes hilly terrain with partly out-and-back sections and significant one-way sections. Distances offered:
- 5 km
- 10 km
The event uses chip timing and provides a finisher’s medal and a technical (Drifit) event shirt. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person. Results are posted live on Athlinks and final results with series points are published the Monday after the race; a QR code at the event links to live results.
Points from these races count toward the Year-Long 5k, 10k, and Back of the Pack series, and also toward the Summer Series. The Back of the Pack time is listed as 14:30; the Back of the Pack is a separate series allowing runners with similar average paces to compete for series points.
There are water stations placed along the courses: three stations on the 7.5 mile course at approximately mile markers 1.88, 3.8, and 6.2, and two stations on the 5k at about mile markers 1.8 and 3.1. Gatorade is available at some stations. Portajohns are located near the start and finish.
Awards include top three men and women overall plus first and second place in multiple age groups; top three overall finishers are not eligible for age-group awards. Photos taken by staff are posted after the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
