Welcome to the Frederick Women's Distance Festival!
August 1-9, 2020
We've Gone Virtual!
Location: Anywhere!
Congratulations to the 355 registered participants of the 2020 Frederick Women's Distance Festival!
We are absolutely delighted to announce that the race raised $21,065 for the Women's Giving Circle of Frederick County!
Our Frederick Women's Distance Festival runners, walkers, sponsors and donors are some of the most positive people we've encountered and we are so grateful as we continue to support the Women's Giving Circle grants program. The work provided by the nonprofits supported by these grants is more important than ever as our residents struggle through these unprecedented challenges.
Premier Sponsor since 2010!
Net proceeds of the Frederick Women’s Distance Festival are donated to the Women’s Giving Circle of Frederick County. The Frederick Steeplechasers donated race proceeds of $21,095 from the 2020 race, bringing the total donated since 2010 to $157,834.
We don't need race-day volunteers this year for our virtual race, but our committee is working hard behind the scenes to bring our runners lots of virtual FUN!
Testimonials
This is one of the best organized, most upbeat and happy races I run all year. It seems to be a very positive and encouraging atmosphere for runners (and walkers) at every level. The course is enjoyable, the course marshals are encouraging, the food and after-race experience is upbeat and the awards ceremony is prompt and fun. And I love the awesome custom awards and the cookies!!
