The Moore & Giles Virginia 10 Miler held its first race in 1974. The events’ growth over the years has been an exciting journey, as we have watched participants challenge themselves, families grow closer, the running community become stronger, and so many runners reach milestones they once only dreamed of. The Moore & Giles Virginia 10 Miler has had the privilege of hosting many elite runners over the years, including Bill Rogers, Alexi Pappas, Jared Ward, Frank Shorter, Rod Dixon, and Joan Benoit Samuelson, and more.
