The Springburst 8K is a challenging race hosted by PGRC. The hills of Greenbelt National Park provide over 100 runners a chance to test their fitness levels before the summer racing season begins. It is also part of the MD RRCA Grand Prix Series, so a chance to gain points in the standings.

This year's race marks the 25th anniversary of the event!  Please be sure to visit our gallery of Springburst Shirts.
