Who is ready to kick off 2016 with a race?

Potomac River Running is sponsoring the New Year’s Day 5K Jan. 1 here in Reston.

It doesn’t even begin that early — race time is 10 a.m. — so it may not even interfere with your New Year’s Eve plans.

Online registration is $35 and open through Dec. 30. Race day registration (if not sold out) will also be available for $40.

The race starts and finishes at Reston Town Center. The course is on town center streets and Reston Association paths, so no major roads will be affected.

There will be music and New Year’s Day celebrations post-race at RTC.

Lifetime Fitness in Reston is also hosting a New Year’s Day Commitment Day 5K that is open to non members.
