The Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10k presented by Kroger is RVA’s favorite spring tradition! Since 2000, people from around the Richmond region and beyond have gathered to share in the journey of crossing the 10k finish line. The 10k is a day about togetherness and we look forward to bringing the community together once more for the annual running of the Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10k. Walk with your family, reunite with your running buddies, or cross the finish line in costume…just don’t miss it because it’s going to be the BIGGEST block party ever!

Well loved race, people of all ages and abilities run it. It’s always better when it’s in April vs March so it isn’t so cold out. Appreciate the bike valet. Could use some upgraded swag bag items but like the annual T-shirt and medal.
A great race and a fun time!

This race, which I’ve done 3 times now, gets better each year! The course is lovely – mostly flat down and back on a beautiful historic street through the city. The fans and entertainment are top notch! There was live music almost every other block and loads of fans with fun themes and signs throughout the course. The race really feels like a celebration of spring and running and good times all around. Finally, big shout out to Sportsbackers for their awesome organization of the race. I’ve run races in other cities by other organizers, and Sportsbackers really has it down to a science. Plenty of portapotties, lots of space in the starting corral, and a fun and well-executed post race party!
Loved the experience!
The course and the community support will make you feel like an Olympian! The scenery is breathtaking. It is a well executed and organized event. MORE

I’m by no means a runner, but I look forward to this race every year! This year (2024) is my 6th one and I walk every time. The other race participants, the cheering stations, and volunteers make this race the best. Packet pickup, the metal and shirt reveal, are also exciting. Definitely recommend it to all fitness levels.

This race was well organized, full of water stations, good bands and lots of spectators cheering on while runners /walkers competed this year. I was able to do this closest to the my fastest time. I recommend anyone who wants to do a 10K to try this one.
Great Experience for 1st Race
Great atmosphere, flat course. Doing the Y-training team and running with someone made this a great experience. Weather in the morning was right around 60 degrees and overcast. MORE

I had a great time running this race for the first time, it was well organized and I loved being around the community.
It’s a pretty crowded race, so it would have been ideal to be in a seeded runners wave, but I’m not that fast. I had to weave in and out of a lot of walkers throughout the race but other than that it was smooth sailing.
A great race for anyone!
I highly recommend this race to anyone! Whether you are a seasoned runner or a first-timer (like me), you'll have a great time. The course itself is a lot of … MORE

This race is a ton of fun and very inclusive. Anyone from a serious runner to a slow walker can participate. The atmosphere is like a giant block party and there is a literally party at the finish line. We’ll be doing this every year until we can’t!
