Knock On Wood Trail Run/Hike - 13.1 & 10k

🌳✌️ Welcome to Knock on Woodstock ✌️🌳

A far-out trail experience brought to you by the Upstate Race Series

Hey there, beautiful soul 🌞! Are you ready to tune in, lace up, and let your spirit run wild through the woods of Pleasant Ridge County Park? Well dig this—Knock on Woodstock is calling your name, and it's not just any race. It's a journey. A vibe. A loop of love, nature, and good energy, all in support of something truly cosmic—Camp Spearhead.

This groovy little event takes place at Camp Spearhead, a magical sanctuary that gives kids and adults with disabilities a chance to play, grow, and feel the love all year long. We're talkin’ horseback rides, crafts, new friendships, and all the smiles the world can handle. By running this race, you’re not just chasing miles—you’re sharing light and giving back to a beautiful community. Far out, right?

🌼 The Course, Man

Our loop is a 10K trail groove with around 650 feet of sweet, rolling elevation per lap. It’s got flow, it’s got rhythm, and it’s got over 90% shade so your chakras stay cool. Directional arrows will guide your path like the universe intended—but if you wander, no worries. Just trace your steps back to your moment of confusion and get back in your groove.

🍪 Aid Station Goodies 🍬

You’ll find one stellar aid station at the main shelter every loop. 

Pickles (for your pickle-loving heart)

Cookies and chips (because why not?)

Candy, fig newtons, and pretzels (a snackin’ symphony)

Hydration? Oh yeah – water, Coke, and a splash of ginger ale

Got a homemade treat or a favorite snack? Share the love! We’re all about community-powered aid stations here. ✊
