On the Dam Trail: Quemahoning Relay Race

Nestled along the pine-lined shores of Quemahoning Reservoir, the On the Dam Trail Race offers runners an unparalleled blend of natural beauty and rugged terrain. This trail running extravaganza takes place on April 24, 2027, inviting participants to explore the serene woodland retreat of Camp Harmony as their starting point.
The event features three race distances: a grueling 50K solo or relay option, a challenging 30K loop around the reservoir, and an invigorating "10K-ish" course just under seven miles long. The full 50K route covers two loops with approximately 3,100 feet of elevation gain, winding through buttery singletrack trails, rolling hills, rocky stretches, and friendly stream crossings.
Camp Harmony serves as the hub for race day activities, offering packet pickup, a festive start/finish area, and post-race celebrations. After completing their runs, participants can enjoy a bonfire under the trees at Camp Harmony, where they’ll find food and camaraderie amidst the woodland setting.
For those looking to extend their adventure, overnight accommodations are available on-site with tent camping or rustic cabins just steps from the start line. The event not only celebrates trail running but also supports local children attending Camp Harmony church camps and contributes to the Johnstown Running Club’s mission of promoting outdoor recreation in the region.
On April 24, join fellow runners for a day filled with scenic views, challenging terrain, and community spirit at Quemahoning Reservoir.
