Trail of Honor: Cody Myers Memorial Race

Trail of Honor: Cody Myers Memorial Race

Presented by the Sons of Italy #146. On Sunday, October 19, the Lock Haven community will gather on the trails to honor a life defined by service, leadership, and love for the outdoors. The Trail of Honor: Cody Myers Memorial Race is a meaningful 8-mile trail race through the woods Cody once explored - an event created to carry forward the values he lived every day. Proceeds benefit the Cody Myers Legacy Scholarship, supporting young leaders who embody Cody’s spirit of integrity and mentorship.

Course DescriptionThe 8-mile course starts and finishes at the Sons of Italy Campground in Lock Haven and follows a scenic loop through the Eagleton Mine Camp Trail system. The route combines forest roads and singletrack, weaving through terrain that Cody knew well and loved. With just over 1,000 feet of climbing, the course blends rolling hills, forested climbs, and flowing descents. It’s a rewarding run without being overwhelming, and early October means fall colors should be near their peak.

Aid Stations and SupportTwo aid stations - located around mile 2 and mile 5 - will be stocked with water, electrolytes, and light trail snacks. Volunteers will be out on course to help with directions and basic support. The route will be clearly marked and open to runners, hikers, and ruckers.

Runner ExperienceThis is a community-first trail race - timed, but low-key and welcoming. Whether you’re chasing a finish time or just out for a good day in the woods, the atmosphere is relaxed and supportive. Expect a warm vibe at the start/finish area, with family, friends, and fellow runners all there to honor Cody’s legacy. Whether you’re racing, running, or rucking, the focus is on connection, not competition.

Benefiting the Cody Myers Legacy ScholarshipAll proceeds support the Cody Myers Legacy Scholarship, administered by the Keystone Central Foundation. The scholarship helps graduating seniors in the Keystone Central School District who lead with integrity and mentor others - the same way Cody did throughout his life and military service.
