Hey Everyone, I would like to attempt this FKT around February 23 or February 24, depending on when kids have soccer games and swimming. I hope some people will come out and join me. Thank you so much.

My email is: mwardian@rocketmail.com. Cheers,Mike

Hey guys, looks like February 23, 2019 starting from Purcellville at 5:00am...just FYI..

I am planning to run the W&OD unsupported in the proper direction, from MM 0 in Shirlington to Purcellville. Perhaps it will be an FKT.

Does anyone know if water fountains are still on in early October?

Hello all!

I’m going to attempt the W&OD unsupported FKT on 12/30/19 starting in the morning from Purcellville and ending in Shirlington. 12/30 is my 40th birthday so this is my present to myself😁👍🏻!

My email is mjcarter79@gmail.com and I will post results on Strava on top of live tracking via Gaia or Garmin.

Merry Christmas and thank you!!

Due to thunderstorms, this run will be moved to Tuesday, 12/31.

I'm gonna try for the W&OD unsupported FKT on Sunday, 9/20/20. I'll be going in the uphill direction from Shirlington to Purcellville, not just because I'm a glutton for punishment, but also because I'll finish close to home. Whether I get the FKT or not, beers will be enjoyed in Pville at the end.

Hey crazy runners!

I guess I should share my intention of the attempt, so here it is!

I'm going to try the W&OD unsupported FKT tomorrow, Saturday, November 21st, from Purcellville to Shirlington. I will post the results once I finish. Wish me luck! 😄
