First run in 1976, the Charlottesville 10 Miler is a beloved tradition and the area's oldest and most prestigious race. Starting on the University of Virginia campus, right in front of the iconic John Paul Jones Arena, the course takes runners on a scenic tour through the historic city of Charlottesville. Organized by the Charlottesville Track Club, the event has raised tens of thousands of dollars for local charities over the past four decades, making it a race that gives back to the community.
Charlottesville is a city rich in history—Thomas Jefferson, anyone? Home to the University of Virginia, the city also boasts Monticello, Jefferson’s famed plantation and residence, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Just outside the city, you’ll also find Highland, the home of James Monroe, the fifth President of the United States. Located 116 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., Charlottesville blends historical charm with a vibrant running culture, making the Charlottesville 10 Miler a race experience like no other.

A long uphill at the start helps to gently and safely lead the racers over a series of rolling hills along Alderman Road.
MILE 2
One of the longest and toughest hills peppers the runners as they climb the loop around Scott Stadium.
MILE 3
A gentle mile-long rise carries the racers along McCormick Road and through the heart of Jefferson's University to the UVA Chapel and Rotunda.
MILE 4
After a slight uphill along Rugby Road, the racers turn onto Grady Avenue and are treated to the longest downhill of the course.
MILE 5
The runners continue to get relief as they race down Preston Avenue but as they hit the brick of the Downtown Mall, the racers begin the first of a series of climbs.
MILE 6
After a long and gentle downhill through the historic Court Square area and a very steep plunge down scenic Second Street, the racers are hit with a tough climb up Northwood before flattening out along dogwood-lined Evergreen Avenue.
MILE 7
The legendary climb up Lexington and Maple is the most talked about section of the course. After their ascent, racers are rewarded with a cruise down Seventh Street, the Downtown Mall and then onto Water Street.
MILE 8
Many consider the gentle but seemingly unending uphill straightaway along Main Street to be the most mental portion of the course.
MILE 9
After climbing the steep hill along "The Corner," the racers are greeted with a gentle but long and steady downhill back through the beautiful University Grounds.
MILE 10
Alderman Road is like a roller coaster of hills but the racers know they're home when they crest the railroad bridge at Copeley Rd.
