The Event

Everyone doing one of the challenges starts each segment at the top of the hour. If you run the 5-mile course in less than 60 minutes, you can rest until the next start. Choose a 3-hour (three segments), 6-hour (six segments), or 10-hour (10 segments) challenge. We also have a traditionally timed marathon and a 25K, if you've got more stamina than speed.

The Course

Each lap is a 5 mile out-and-back on the natural surface trails of the Agricultural History Farm Park in Montgomery County, Maryland. Each loop will have grassy sections as well as single track including some sections with exposed rocks and roots and a couple of minor creek crossings. For the most part, the trail is fast and highly runnable.. There are some rolling hills, but no major climbs. The aid station is considered one of the best in all of trail running: It will have water, sports drink, salty and sugary snacks, and lots of other options, including vegan and vegetarian. There will be plenty to eat. The course is subject to change as trail conditions warrant or as park management deems necessary.
