The Arc of Northern Virginia’s Corporate and Community Team Challenge brings together companies and the community to raise important funds to sustain and strengthen its vital programs, services, and advocacy for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities of all ages and their families.  This year, the premier corporate challenge foot race - and the area’s only team-based race with teams of 5-7 runners - will again be held in-person at Burke Lake Park.

The 2k Fun Walk or Roll

For those who are not runners we are very happy to welcome everyone who wants to gather for the fun of the event by walking together in-person as a team. And because the course is paved, those who use wheeled forms of mobility can participate as well!  Walking/rolling teams can have up to 7 participants. The 2k Fun Walk/Roll is 1k in each direction, out and back - however, teams are welcome to walk the entire 5k running course if they would like. This category of our Team Challenge event is fun, non-competitive, and pet, family, wheelchair, and stroller friendly. Finish times will not be recorded.

Registration Fees:

Walking team (Up to 7 people):  $500

Individual walker:  $45

All preregistered participants will receive an event t-shirt and bib.
