With a course that will take you through historic towns and sites and a finish line party at National Harbor, this course is often called "Ragnar's Best Kept Secret". You'll start running from the town of Cumberland, Maryland and your team will head east through thick forest trails and scenic paths. Around nightfall You'll run through the quiet streets of many charming historic Civil War-Era towns, ultimately passing within the shadows of the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. You and your teammates will storm the finish line together on the shores of the Potomac River at the National Harbor in Washington DC. This is a running event you don’t want to miss.
This was one of the greatest experiences I have ever had and absolutely cannot wait to do another one. I loved all of the support that every team gave each other and the energy we were able to feed off of each other. I think the race coordinators did a great job of planning and organizing this race. I felt like it ran smoothly, I had all the resources as a captain and do not have any complaints.
