Markel Corporate Run

Lace up for the Markel Corporate Run, Richmond's premier 5K networking event, taking place on June 4, 2026, in scenic Glen Allen, VA. This established race, celebrating over 15 years, transforms the Innsbrook Office Park into an energetic hub where companies and colleagues connect through a shared 3.1-mile run or walk. The flat, runnable course through Innsbrook offers a pleasant summer evening experience, whether you're aiming for a personal best or enjoying a leisurely stroll with your team.

More than just a race, the Markel Corporate Run is renowned as "Richmond's Biggest Office Party," fostering corporate pride, wellness, and unparalleled networking opportunities. Participants can look forward to a lively pre-race warm-up, followed by the main event, and then the exciting Hirschler Post Race Office Party. Here, a DJ keeps the atmosphere vibrant while runners and walkers enjoy complimentary beer, hard seltzer, or non-alcoholic options with their drink tickets. Teams can further showcase their spirit and creativity in contests like Best Team Tent and the Custom Ink Team T-Shirt Contest, or engage in friendly fundraising for Greater Richmond Fit4Kids through the Charity Cup Challenge.

With typical race day conditions seeing highs around 83°F and lows around 61°F, and only a 16% chance of precipitation, the early June evening promises ideal weather for this unique blend of friendly competition and camaraderie. The Markel Corporate Run offers a fantastic opportunity to build team cohesion, support a great cause, and engage with the local business community in a fun and active environment.
