2025 Fall Race Series

This seasonal series is designed to keep runners motivated as the temperatures cool and the race calendar stays hot. The Fall Series offers a fun, community-centered way to stay active while participating in some of the region’s most beloved autumn races.

Participants earn points in two categories: overall male or female, and within their respective age group. Whether you're racing for a top spot or just looking to stay consistent through the fall, the series is a great way to stay engaged and enjoy the camaraderie of the local running community.

To be eligible for a Fall Race Series award, runners must complete in at least 4 races to qualify. Although membership in the Lynchburg Road Runners is not required to participate, LRRC members do enjoy a discount on all races.

I Am Women 5K 

October 25, 2025

The I Am Woman 5K partners with the Centra Foundation to raise funds for pediatric care. Funds raised have helped secure specialized newborn and pediatric equipment such as fetal monitors, radiant Panda warmers and Omni beds for the Intensive Care Nursery. This equipment allows them to treat children close to home.

*** Yes, we know that there is a slight inequity because the I am Woman 5K is a women-only race. Men and women are scored separately so there is no difference relative to overall and age group awards. ***
