MANASSAS RUNWAY 10k/5k, May 12th, 2012, 7:30AM
Ever wanted to run on an Airport Runway??? Well, now you have that chance! Come out for a great day of fun and running at the Manassas Regional Airport in Manassas, VA. An event for the entire family with both a 10k and 5k run. This event kicks off the airports open house day and the finishers will start and finish on the taxi way in front of the main terminal with planes on both sides of the final dash to the finish line. Runners will run on the runways, around taxi ways, and around the local roads of the airport. This is a pancake flat course (have you ever heard of hills on a runway?:). Come out and post that PR!!!
The Entire Course is PAVED! There are no dirt roads...The outer airport access road on the video and maps shows that it is dirt but it is actually BLACKTOP recently paved.

Make this a great outing for everyone. The Airshow is going to be fantastic this year! Take an incentive ride in an airplane or helicopter for a small fee, see the inside of luxury business jets, learn how to become a pilot, have plenty of food, and so much more. This is going to be one awesome day and we get to kick it off by running on and around the airport!!!
