About This Event
The Navy Federal’s 25th Annual 5K is an event bringing together Navy Federal employees and the surrounding communities to promote the benefits of health and fitness. Since 1933, Navy Federal has grown from seven members to over 6 million members. And since that time, Navy Federal’s vision statement has remained focused on serving their unique field of membership: "Be the most preferred and trusted financial institution serving the military and their families."
Proceeds from the event benefit The Committee for Helping Others. The Committee for Helping Others is an all-volunteer organization that helps those in need in Vienna, Oakton, Dunn Loring, and Merrifield by providing: emergency financial assistance, emergency food aid, clothing, furniture, Meals on Wheels and transportation.
The event will be officially timed by RaceWire, and awards will be given to the top finishers in each category. Water will be provided during and after the race, and food and refreshments will be available at our post-race gathering.
Please Note: Registration Fees are non-refundable and the race will be held rain or shine.
