Old Point National Bank Monster Mile

This one mile fun run begins on 19th Street in front of the Virginia Beach Convention Center, runs east for a half mile and then returns to the Virginia Beach Convention Center. You will have fun waving at your friends on the crowd filled streets.

**The Monster Mile is a 1-mile race open to participants of all ages. Parents or guardians are encouraged to run with their minor children but must be registered for the race. Responsible adult family members must be present at the finish to receive their minor children as there will be no additional security beyond the secured finisher’s area, and no specific parent/child reunion area.

Costume Contest

The costume contest judging will occur before and after the race. If you want to be eligible for a prize, come to the table with your bib, group name (if you are a group) and all members of your group. We will be judging before the race inside the convention center from 6:30am – 7:30am and after the race from 8:45am – 10:15am. You must wear your costume during the race to enter the costume contest.
