Potomac Shores Fall 2025 Trails Fun Run

Come join us on Saturday, October 4 at 9:30am for our Annual Fall Fun Run sponsored by the Po Sho Trails Committee.

This year we will offer the standard 5K route, but we will once again offer a 10K route as well provided we get enough interested participants. Both run routes will start at the Fitness Barn parking list at the same time and will proceed on the same route; then the routes will split at a certain point. Both routes will end at the fitness barn parking lot. The 10K route will include trails in the northern network as well as one of our trails in the southern network.

Our ability to carry out the 10K option really rests on our ability to recruit enough volunteers. If we do not succeed, we will only offer the 5K route.

Please note, the 10K route is much hillier and thus more physically demanding than the 5K route. Only very fit runners should attempt the 10K course. It is also not suitable for baby strollers/baby joggers, etc...

Get out there and enjoy our community's beautiful trail network. Prizes will be awarded for the fastest runners, but runners and walkers of all abilities are welcome and encouraged to participate. Commemorative T-shirts available to participants while they last!

Event is free of charge for Potomac Shores residents and their guests.

We need VOLUNTEERS on run day to help us make this run happen. Please email the Trails Committee at dHJhaWxzcG90b21hY3Nob3JlcyB8IGdtYWlsICEgY29t to volunteer.

At check out, please be sure to select t-shirt size for each participant you've registered.

ATTENTION! ONLY THE FIRST 200 ENTRANTS WILL RECEIVE A T-SHIRT. AND WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT ANYONE WHO REGISTERS FOR THE RUN ON OR AFTER 20 SEPTEMBER WILL GET THEIR T-SHIRT ON RUN DAY AS WE HAVE A CUTOFF DATE TO ENSURE T-SHIRTS CAN BE MANUFACTURED IN TIME BEFORE THE RUN.
