About the race
The Rock Creek Reindeer Rumble is a timed running event held at Rock Creek Park in Washington, DC. It offers two course options and a virtual race option for participants who cannot attend in person. Walkers and strollers are welcome.
The event uses chip timing and provides finishers with a medal and a technical (drifit) event shirt. Live race results are posted on Athlinks with a QR code available at the course; final results with series points are posted to the organizer’s website the Monday after the race. Runner tracking via SMS is available during registration.
Course details:
- 5 km out-and-back
- 10 km two laps
The paved route is mostly flat with one considerable hill. Water stations are placed along each course: two stations on the 5 km and five stations on the 10 km at specified mile markers; Gatorade is available at some stations. Restrooms are located across from the Tennis Center. Packet pickup is available at the event; there is no on-site race registration.
The event awards the top three men and women overall and age-group awards across standard age brackets; overall top-three finishers are not eligible for age-group prizes. The race contributes points to the Year-Long 5k, 10k, and Back of the Pack series and to the Fall Series. Charity information for Project CASK is included with the event.
