Runner-up Hilary Cairns finished in 19:03. Claudia Piepenburg finished in 20:37. The Run for Towpath 5K was held on April 20th, 1996, conducted by the DCRRC.

The course started under the Whitehurst Freeway on K Street, continued on past the Potomac Boat Club and onto the new Capital Crescent Trail. At Fletcher's Boat House the course turned back onto the towpath and finished at the Flour Mill in Georgetown. Anthony Belber's 26:45 edged out Ted Poulos' 26:51 for the win, and Fiona Branton continued her winning streak by taking the women's crown in 30:04 to Monica Grillo's 31 :40.
