👏👏👏👏 Winter goals 🎯🎯

🥶 Start the New Year with us at the Frozen Toe 10K!

What better way to kick off 2027?
Join us on January 9, 2027, for the Frozen Toe 10K!

A longtime Roanoke trail-running favorite, running the Chestnut Ridge Loop is a great way to shake off the holiday season, get outside, and start the New Year with some miles on the trails.

It's a course that holds up particularly well to winter weather, making it a great choice when temperatures drop. Just bundle up, lace up, and come enjoy a winter morning on the trails with fellow runners!

Whether you're a longtime Frozen Toe regular or have never joined us before, we'd love to see you there.

Start 2027 the right way – getting your pumpkin bread fix on, along with a little dirt, a little cold, and a lot of trail running!

Success isn’t measured solely by how many runners cross our finish lines, but by how much good we can create along the way.

To the families, organizations, runners, volunteers, and community members who allow us to be part of something bigger than ourselves: THANK YOU.

Every person who shows up helps make opportunities like these possible.

We’re incredibly grateful that SWVA Running gets to be a small part of the stories being written in our communities.
