The Janet Braunstein 5 Miler is a pancake flat 5-mile race that runs in tandem with the National Capital 20 Miler. This race is dedicated to Janet Braunstein, who was a regular participant and frequent top finisher.
Like the National Capital 20 Miler, this race offers runners an excellent training opportunity, tempo run possibility, or a fast racing experience all on its own.
