Set against the backdrop of the Atlantic coastline, the Chartway Virginia Beach 10 Miler & 5K takes place on Labor Day weekend, August 30–31, 2025, offering a festive race experience along the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Organized by J&A Racing, this two-day event features a 5K on Saturday, a 10 Miler on Sunday, a Kids 1 Miler, and the Live the Life Challenge, which rewards participants who complete both the 5K and 10 Miler with a bonus medal. All courses are flat, fast, and scenic—passing local landmarks such as Rudee Inlet, the Virginia Aquarium, and finishing on the lively boardwalk. Runners enjoy high-energy support along the route, with live music, aid stations every mile, and enthusiastic cheer squads. Each participant receives a technical T-shirt and finisher medal, while the challenge participants get additional rewards. The weekend culminates in a beachfront post-race party with refreshments, live music, and community vibes, making the event more than just a race—it’s a celebration of coastal life, fitness, and fun.
