Fall Foliage Ramble

Paul Smith's College VIC will celebrate the 2014 Adirondack Trail Race Series with our grande finale! Warning: this trail run may be aesthetically overwhelming and you may not be able to resist stopping to take it in. Take advantage of your last chance to race this year on some of the most beautiful trails you will ever get mileage on during the most colorful time of the year.
If you've been running with us all season (3 or more 10k plus races), you only pay $10 for this event! Call 518-327-6241 for more information on this promotion.


This trail run will take place on the network of wooded trails, different from the Jenkins mountain scramble. All proceeds from the race will be used to support the VIC, a vital community resource for environmental education, recreation, and the arts. We will have a 15K for the last push of the season, a 5K family fun run/ walk, and a 1K kids run! All races will be run as “wilderness trail runs;” there will be no support during the race. All participants are on their own from start to finish and will need to carry their own water, food and other supplies they may require during the race. Any volunteers stationed on the course will be there to ensure runners take the designated trail. They will not be providing water, food, gu, moleskin, etc. It is absolutely critical that all racers respect the beautiful network of the trails that they will be using. If you drop an energy packet by accident, please stop and pick it up. Anyone failing to do this will be immediately disqualified.
