Join us this May for what trail runners everywhere have deemed a "MUST DO" and "BUCKET LIST" run! Each distance takes runners on a beautiful and unforgettable adventure through Grayson Highlands State Park. This run has a little bit of everything, and is the perfect mix of fun, safe, and challenging! As with all Run Bum Races, we recommend runners register early, as we do sell out quickly! Once the spots are gone, they're gone!
Quick Facts

As with all of our mountain/ultra/trail races, we like to say that the distances are "ish". Everyone's GPS reads differently, and our mapping software might be slightly different than what you actually run. That's just part of the fun of trail running. The goal of the event is to experience the incredible scenic beauty and not to hit an exact distance.
