Endless 5K

Take on the ultimate endurance challenge! Run a 5k every hour on the hour until you're the last one standing. Free for everyone!

The Endless 5K is a FREE endurance event open to runners of all abilities. Event proceeds will support the Public Housing Alliance of Residents, a local organization that promotes affordable housing in Charlottesville.

Participants complete a 5K loop starting at the top of every hour. If you finish a lap early, you have the remaining time to rest before the next lap begins at the top of the next hour. The event ends when only one runner remains. Even if you aren't an experienced runner, stop by to check out the CIO booths, free food, music, and games!

This event is free for all participants, and registration guarantees you an event bib. However, paid tickets include an event T-shirt and the ability to form a team. Each runner earns a point for their team for every lap they complete. At the end of the event, the top teams win prizes!
