The 2026 King George Fall Festival Race/Run/Walk will be held for the 6th year on the Dahlgren Railroad Heritage Trail. This event offers an untimed out-and-back race from the Bloomsbury Road trailhead of the Dahlgren Railroad Heritage Trail.  For those with a competitive streak, a LED clock will be set up at the finish line. Aid stations with hydration and first aid will be located at the start/finish and at Lambs Creek for the 5K race. This is a fun family event for all ages!  Jogging strollers are allowed and no charge for children being pushed!  A photo shoot area with straw and pumpkins will be setup for pictures!
