The Experience
Set within the diverse natural features of Alum Creek State Park, this trail race offers a refreshing contrast to the surrounding farmlands. Runners navigate paths alongside dramatic cliffs of Ohio shale, carved by Alum Creek and other streams cutting through the bedrock.
The course winds through the park, highlighting its unique geological formations and leading participants along the shores of Ohio's largest inland beach. With a typical race-day temperature range of 59–79°F, conditions are generally favorable for a comfortable run.
This event, first run in 2025, is part of a series known for its well-supported races in scenic locations, catering to athletes of all levels.
