Glebe Park
4211 North Old Glebe Road,
To celebrate the holiday season
The 3K course is easy -- just a short uphill, a downhill, and back
You see Christmas decorations and some Hanukiahs all along the course
The 8K course runs to the bottom of that hill and then turns right to an uphill through a beautiful forest trail, but it's harder than climbing Masada!
... and back
Pre-race candle-lighting ceremony before the 8K
Post-race latkes with applesauce and hot coffee on-site after the 8K
