This event, now in its fifth year, has seen growing participation, with recent editions drawing around 203 finishers from approximately 15 states.

With minimal elevation change, it presents a largely flat profile conducive to steady running. Runners can expect a unique blend of natural beauty and historical remnants.
The atmosphere is bolstered by a community feel and a post-race party at the Moose Lodge, complete with music and food.
