WELCOME TO GEORGE WASHINGTON MEMORIAL PARKWAY!

On behalf of George Washington Memorial

Parkway staff and the National Park Service we

welcome runners, walkers, and spectators to the fourth most visit national park site in the United States. The

parkway was designed for recreational driving and stops along this 25-mile roadway form a sweeping course

in American history from colonization to slavery sprinkled with marshes and other natural wonders. George

Washington Memorial Parkway is committed to providing outstanding recreational opportunities and facilitating

transformative experiences for visitors from all walks of life. During this year’s George Washington Parkway

Classic, Park Rangers and National Park Service volunteers will cheer on participants as they run on the scenic

roadway originally known as the Mount Vernon Memorial Parkway. Rumor, even has it that Buddy Bison will be at

the finish line!

The parkway which runs alongside the southern edge of the Potomac River from Mount Vernon to Great Falls

is a major commuter route for area residents. However, for a couple of hours in April every year, the George

Washington Memorial Parkway transforms itself into a pedestrian-friendly roadway. People of all ages and all

abilities are given an opportunity to enjoy morning’s early light as they run or walk towards the finish line in

Alexandria. Last year, as part of the National Park Service Centennial celebration, a group of GWMP employees—

the Blazin Bisons participated in the race. It was an unforgettable experience. I saw the beauty of the area with

new eyes and made friends along the way. By walking literally on the roadway instead of driving, my senses were

awakened to the natural world rarely experienced while in a vehicle and I gained a whole new appreciation for

George Washington Memorial Parkway.

Whether you are a participant or spectator, please take a moment to smell the air, listen to the wild sounds, and

enjoy the view because George Washington Memorial Parkway is a special place that has been set aside for your

enjoyment. Happy trails and see you at the finish line!

BLANCA ALVAREZ STRANSKY, ACTING SUPERINTENDENT

We want to thank you for participating in this year’s

Parkway Classic. Your run helps support our local

chapter of the Boys and Girls Club raising funds for

their annual operating needs. We are also thrilled

that over 50 club members have trained for months

to participate in this year’s event!

The Parkway Classic is rooted in the Alexandria

community, produced by Alexandria’s preeminent

running retailer, Pacers Running, and with such noted partners as Alexandria’s own Port City Brewing, Sugar

Shack Donuts, the Old Town Boutique District, Jillian Keck/McEnearny Associates, the City of Alexandria,

Mount Vernon Estates, and the National Park Service.

We would like to invite you to not just run the race but walk our streets and explore our amazing city restaurants and shops, as featured by our partner the Old Town Boutique District and Visit Alexandria. Be sure

to check our race app for great deals from local boutiques, restaurants, and hotels.

On behalf of our staff, partners, vendors, volunteers, and beneficiaries, we wish you a wonderful race

experience at Alexandria’s Hometown Race!
