An annual Kensington tradition since 1993, the Kensington 8K, 2 Mile Challenge and 1K Fun Run has something for everyone. The 8k is a challenging race combining long hills and flats. It’s a great training run for the experienced runner, a touchstone event for the intermediate and weekly runner. The Kensington 8k has grown in size and stature over the years but continues to highlight Kensington's unique small-town feel. The 2 mile and 1k fun runs are non-competitive events that families and younger runners really enjoy. This year the proceeds will support three public schools: Kensington Parkwood Elementary, North Bethesda Middle School and Walter Johnson High School. The volunteer organizers are a blend of parents and supporters with ties to these wonderful public schools. We encourage all students, teachers, administrators and staff from these schools to come out on race day, join the fun and embrace the community spirit that is the Kensington 8k.

Putting on a race is a big deal. The race committee spends loads of time and energy getting to all the details. We can always use more volunteers to organize the race and help out on race day. Sign up and get some fun student service learning (SSL) hours.
