Spring 2025 Season

We wrapped up our spring 2025 season with two incredible 5K celebrations in May. Over 4,000 GOTR participants, coaches, and Buddy Runners crossed the finish lines at One Loudoun and in Pentagon City.

 

Thank you to everyone who joined us and supported our spring 2025 season!

We just wrapped up our first week of Camp GOTR in Northern Virginia, and it was a huge success! Our first Camp GOTR team was held at The St. James in Springfield.

 

This fun-filled week was packed with growth, friendship, and loads of joy, along with a handful of different activities, including creative skits, crafts, and games that tested our communication and teamwork skills.

Looking Ahead to Fall 2025

  • The New Coach Application and Returning Coach Registration are open
  • Program Registration will be open August 25 - September 15
  • The fall 2025 season will begin on September 22
  • 5K weekend is tentatively set for November 22 & 23
