About

Old Bust Head Benefit 5K Walk/Run is held in Warrenton, Virginia, on October 31, 2026. The schedule holds a single format, a 5K walk or run covering 3.1 miles, with a start time of 11:00 a.m., late enough that no alarm is required and unusual for a fall road race.

An 11:00 a.m. start changes your morning more than you might expect. Eat a normal breakfast about three hours out, keep sipping water through the morning, and begin your warm-up around 10:30 rather than rolling straight from the car to the start line. The benefit format and the walk option mean a mixed field, so seed yourself honestly. As a race, 3.1 miles asks for sharpness rather than mileage, and a few weeks of short, fast repetitions will do more for your time than extra long runs.
