Event overview
The Run for Valor on December 6 takes place at Valor Ranch, 15360 Sunset Lane, King George, VA. The event offers multiple distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- 10K Ruck
- 1-mile Fun Run/Walk
The 5K and 10K are trail courses across the farm and are officially timed. The 1-mile fun run/walk uses gravel roads and well packed trails. Courses are on unpaved surfaces through pastures, woods, and a gravel road. Participants can expect uneven terrain, occasional tree roots, and possible mud or standing water depending on recent weather. The 10K ruck follows the same course as the 10K run and is a weighted event.
