Last week, more than 7,000 runners took to the streets for the second annual PNC Alexandria Half Marathon — 1 out of 3 of those participants called Alexandria home.
For us, it felt like a celebration.
Pacers Running has called Old Town Alexandria home for 35 years this summer. Same corner of King and Payne Street. Same community. Same love for this sport and this city.
Running Alexandria’s own race through Alexandria’s own streets — it felt freaking special.
To every runner, every customer, every neighbor who has walked through our doors over the past 3½ decades — thank you. Truly.
Here’s to Alexandria. Here’s to running. Here’s to 35 more. 🏃♂️❤️.

Somehow this gets more fun every time.
Huge thanks to @runpacers@on and @alexandriahalfmarathon for throwing a beautiful party & inviting me to be a part of it, and to the DMV running family for turning the dial up to 11 every single time.
Chasing a goal time? We’ve got you. Our pace team is here to help you run smart, stay steady, and hit your race-day goals. Find your group, lock in your pace, and let them guide you to the finish!
Join us for the official PNC Alexandria Half Shakeout Run! Wear your race day shoes or try some demos from On and come along for a 3 mile run or 2 mile walk to Hotel AKA for drinks, mocktails, and sweets! We will transport your items from the store to the hotel. The perfect way to make sure you are “On” for race day!
Saturday, April 18, Clarendon FitFest is bringing run, sweat, dance, repeat energy all morning long. We’ll kick things off with a social 5K and 2 mile walk hosted by Pacers Running (with pace groups for all!) starting at 8am, then roll straight into music, movement, and all the good vibes.
We’re taking over the Plaza at Mason Square, partnering with our friends at George Mason and @clarendonalliance to bring it all to life. Fitness demos kick off at 9am and roll every 30 minutes, plus 30+ local fitness community and healthy lifestyle related businesses from across the Clarendon corridor will be out there tabling and bringing the energy. Stick around after for mimosas at the newest spot in town, @woodandiron
Bring your crew. Bring your hype. Let’s make it a fitness party.
