Event overview

The 2026 Team RWB 5k & Half is a running event with two distances:

  • 5k
  • Half marathon

Both distances use the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal path in Georgetown, Washington, DC. The event offers a virtual run option. Runners receive a finisher's medal, a technical (drifit) event shirt, and chip timing. The race benefits Team RWB DC. There will be no on-site race registration for this event. The half marathon has a completion time limit of 3:15. Back of the Pack (BOTP) times are listed as 12:00 for the half and 11:00 for the 5k; BOTP is described as a series classification, not a course cutoff.

Course and logistics

Both courses are out-and-back routes on the C&O Canal path, described as a light gravel trail with minimal elevation change. The half starts and ends in Georgetown near the Potomac Boat Club; the 5k starts and ends at Fletcher's Boathouse. Water stations: seven along the half at approximately mile markers 1.55, 3.8, 4.3, 6.55, 8.8, 9.3 and 11.55; one water station on the 5k at about mile 1.55. Some stations will offer Gatorade. Port-a-johns and venue restrooms are provided near the registration/start areas. There is no official bag check; items may be left at the timing tent but are not the organizer's responsibility. Live results will be posted on Athlinks and final results with series points will be posted the Monday after the race. Awards are given to the top three men and women overall and to first and second in age categories from 19&Under through 70+. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
