Backyard Burn Tomorrow at Fountainhead is a 'GO' as Scheduled!

The race tomorrow at Fountainhead is a ‘GO’, as scheduled. Based on the latest forecast, we will get more rain tonight and there is a chance of thundershowers in the early hours tomorrow. Imminent lightning would cause us to delay the race start in the morning but this will be a ‘game day’ decision.

So, put your game face on and prepare for a wet adventure tomorrow.

The sixth annual Spring Backyard Burn is a series of 5 and 10 mile trail running races held on some of the best trail networks in the Northern Virginia Area. All the courses include a mixture of forested fire roads, twisty hiking trails, several stream crossings, grassy fields, and minimal pavement.

The Spring and Fall Series are both independent of each other. A point system adding competitor's four-race point totals will be used to determine the top finishers within each age group of the series.

These races have sold-out for the past several years, so register early to save money and guarantee your spot in the race.
