Damascus Festival of Miles

The Damascus Festival of Miles is a timed loop race held in Damascus, Virginia. It offers 3-, 6-, and 12-hour options, with plans for a 24-hour challenge next year. Runners complete laps on a 1-mile loop through Damascus Town Park, featuring a mix of paved and trail sections.

The event doubles as a festival, with live music, food trucks, and a vibrant atmosphere around the park gazebo, plus camping for registered runners in reserved spaces along the course, with over 100 campsites. Amenities include aid stations, parking, and a race shirt for all participants; awards recognize finishers and laps. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
