SVR Winter Series 2026–27
The SVR Winter Series is a club-managed series of eight road races held between December 6, 2026 and March 13, 2027 at venues in Virginia and West Virginia. Entry for this year is only available as a full-series registration through RunSignup and is limited to active club members; participants must have a 2027 club membership established before February 1, 2027 to be eligible for series awards. Individual race entries are not offered.
Distances in the series include:
- 5K
- 4 miles
All races use a timing-chip system for most events. One chip is assigned for races two through eight and must be used for each race, returned at the end of the series, and replaced at a $20 charge if lost. Chip pickup opportunities include the Berryville Turkey Trot, the Thanksgiving Day 5K in Stephens City, and the first Winter Series event, with possible additional pickup times announced by the club.
Race conduct follows Road Runners Club of America guidelines: headphones, animals, and strollers are not permitted at SVR events, except at the South Berkeley Christmas 5K where dogs and strollers are allowed. Swag for registrants includes an SVR gym bag and a Winter Series 26-27 decal, guaranteed only to the first 700 runners who check in and obtain their timing chip.
Series scoring awards points after each race; cumulative scores are based on top finishes with minimum race-count requirements for award eligibility. The series schedule and event details may be altered by the organizer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
