The MVP Health Care Stockade-athon returns for its next edition in 2026, inviting runners of all ages to experience the scenic routes and vibrant atmosphere of this beloved annual race. Organized by the Hudson Mohawk Road Runners Club, the event features a unique course that showcases the historic beauty and charm of upstate New York. This year's highlight is an innovative grant program aimed at encouraging young athletes. Participants aged 18 years or younger will enjoy a significant benefit with their registration fees reduced to half price, making it easier for them to join in on the fun without breaking the bank. The discounted rate will be automatically applied during checkout for all eligible runners. The race offers an engaging course that challenges participants while allowing everyone to appreciate the local scenery and landmarks. Runners can expect a mix of terrain as they navigate through city streets, winding paths, and historic sites along the way. However, keep in mind that due to permit restrictions, the event has a strict time limit of two hours and thirty minutes for all runners to complete their journey. While there's no shortage of excitement on race day, it’s worth noting that t-shirts will only be provided as part of adult registration packages; kids running alongside adults may receive one if they are registered with an accompanying adult. For the most up-to-date information about course details and other important event specifics, visit the official MVP Health Care Stockade-athon website. Join us for a day filled with community spirit, competitive energy, and unforgettable memories at this year’s MVP Health Care Stockade-athon.
