Join us May 17, 2026 for the 45th Capitol Hill Classic!

Join runners from across the region for Washington, DC’s largest and oldest 10K. Trek across historic Capitol Hill, passing the U.S. Capitol, the Supreme Court, the Library of Congress, the Folger Shakespeare Library, Lincoln Park, East Capitol Street, and RFK Stadium. We also will have our regular 3K and Kids’ Fun Run that will follow the 10K.

This year’s Capitol Hill Classic is sponsored by Kitchel Injury Law — committed to making our streets safer for cyclists, pedestrians, and every family navigating D.C. traffic. Kitchel Injury Law helps people recover after car accidents, and we’re thrilled to have a partner who is committed to serving the Capitol Hill community.  

The Classic and the Capitol Hill Cluster School

The funds raised through the Capitol Hill Classic go toward the Capitol Hill Cluster School, a DC Public School, and help bridge the gap between the DC Public Schools budget and the money needed to fund field trips, buy art supplies, support classroom projects, provide professional development for our teachers, and fund the gardens and teachers’ requests.

The Capitol Hill Cluster School is a unique DC public school on three campuses—Peabody Primary School, Watkins Elementary School, and Stuart-Hobson Middle School.

Thank you to our 2026 Classic Sponsors
