Hair of The Dog 5K

Come for the New Year's Celebration at Williamsburg's First Night Celebration and stay for the run that kicks off your New Year in a healthy way. First Night is a family friendly, alcohol-free community celebration of the New Year. Each December 31st, we celebrate the passage of time from the old year to the new with a festival celebrating the performing arts in many forms and venues.  

This New Year's Day race has a little something for everyone with a competitive 5K race, 5K walking category, fun and festive formal wear race division (pajamas allowed), weight challenge division, and kid's fun run. Come on out and celebrate your New Year with us! A portion of the proceeds raised from this event will go to the Williamsburg YMCA. All 5K runners receive a race T-shirt, post-race refreshments, and festive post-race awards ceremony. Kid's 1 Mile participants receive a finisher medal and post-race refreshments.
