Beat the November doldrums by joining us for this competitive but low key trail running series at Hard'ack recreation area in St. Albans. We have 5k and 3k options for runners of all ages, abilities, and attitudes. Casual or competitive, we have a fun community atmosphere that's great for the whole family. There are free refreshments and a random prize raffle after each race.
The courses are on wide cross country trails that are mostly well mowed grass. If you've been here for a high school or college race, we use the wooded trails much more than the open meadows. It's not mountainous terrain, but you should come prepared to run some hills. The course generally changes from week to week, and we try to choose the best course for whatever the weather conditions are, like optimizing tailwinds and minimizing headwinds.
NOTE: You can choose your race distance when you show up on race day. Pricing and registration is the same for both distances.
