McLean 5K 2026

The McLean 5K is a certified 5K run through McLean, Virginia, held annually on the first Saturday in October. The race begins at 8am and accommodates a wide range of participants, including regular runners, casual joggers, families, neighbors, teammates, and co-workers enjoying a local morning together. The event has strong local ties. The McLean Community Foundation organizes it with the McLean Community Center, Century 21 New Millennium, and the Greater McLean Chamber of Commerce. Organizers state it is “in McLean, by McLean, for McLean.” All proceeds benefit the McLean Community Foundation, supporting McLean residents. Participants receive a race T-shirt, and bib-number drawings will award door prizes, such as three 7-day Wyndham vacations. Winners must be present to claim prizes.
