Main Street Mile

Main Street Mile is a 1 mile race around the downtown Annandale area and finishing in front of City Hall. This is a family-friendly event for runners of all abilities. Bring your friends, your coworkers, your family, or strangers to run your fastest mile and possibly compete for some cool and unique awards.A portion of race proceeds will be donated to help the community. This will primarily be to students at Annandale schools, but also to the Annandale volunteer Police Officers. The Main Street Mile is 2 weeks before Christmas and this will be a great time to donate money to kids in our community who could use help.
