About

This is a USATF-sanctioned and insured event. This race is happening with approval and permission from the NYS DEC, Finger Lakes Trail Conference, Private Landowners, the ADK-Onondaga trail chapter, and SUNY ESF. We are very privileged to have this race happening and it would not be possible without the previously listed partners, so a huge thank you to all of them!

This race will be utilizing much of the Morgan Hill State Forest, Heiburg Forest and will be run on the Finger Lakes Trail system. This race is named the Morgan Hill Meat Grinder for a reason, it will chew you up.....if you let it! No matter the distance you choose to run, your legs will be ground up but your spirit will have been forged and stronger than ever with the knowledge and experience of having conquered some of the most gnarly trails in Upstate NY!

We're working hard to make this a premier event and are very excited to see you on race day!

We'll be posting updates throughout the year so be sure to Follow us on Facebook or Instagram!

Volunteers

The Morgan Hill Meat Grinder is a big event to plan and support! We are most in need of volunteers in the following areas:
- Aid Stations - There are a number of aid stations throughout the course so we need several dedicated teams to operate them. If you have a group of creative friends that enjoy making runners smile, reach out to the RD at iain.nelson@reluctantrunnerracing.com for more information. It's a great way to get your organization's name out there!
- Packet Pickup - self-explanatory
- Medical - While not expected to provide medical aid, it's nice to have some first-aid-minded folks along the course to help keep track of runners and ensure their safety.
- Course Marking/Sweeping - It's critical to mark the course properly to ensure runners are going the correct way. Even more, so that we leave the trail in better condition than we found it!

Event's current local time: 8:47 AM ET
