Ukrop's Monument Avenue 10k presented by Kroger 2027

The Ukrop's Monument Avenue 10k presented by Kroger is a spring 10K in Richmond, Virginia, starting and finishing at Broad Street and Harrison Street. Since 2000, it has attracted participants from the Richmond region and beyond for a wave-start road race suitable for runners, walkers, families, and first-timers. The event also features the Atlantic Union Bank 10k Mini, a Health & Fitness Expo prior to race day, and the Sheehy Post Race Festival afterward. The course is flat and fast, following tree-lined streets past historic homes and notable architecture along Monument Avenue. The day emphasizes community, with participants walking with relatives, meeting running friends, and occasionally finishing in costume. Each participant receives a shirt, event bag, chip-timed bib, finisher medal, festival entry, expo access, and post-race food from Kroger. The race benefits VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center and Sports Backers Youth Programs, offering a training team, income-based rates, and a virtual option to enhance accessibility.
