The Long Run will feature a give or take 5 mile loop around Jacobsburg State Park on a mixture of single track and gravel trails. The start and finish will be at the Equestrian Parking Lot. The loop has approximately 450 feet of elevation change. Those competing can select to run/hike the 5 mile event, the 3H or the 6H event.

AID

We are a cupless event. You must supply your own hydration. Coolers of water will be available to refill bottles between laps or before/after the event. This is a self supported event, therefore we cannot provide fuel to all runners at this time. Please bring your own fueling.

Runners doing the 3H/6H event are allowed to have a bin or bucket less than 30 gallons in size for their aiding. These will be placed near the start/finish line for runners to stop after they check in for their lap.

No limit on crew or support day of event. This event is spectator friendly.

ZERO CARBON

This is a zero carbon event, meaning we take into account the emissions released in relation to hosting this trail race. The Running Kind will be subsidizing the cost to offset the event, however there will be an extra $1 added on to your registration specifically for this cost. This $1 will offset the carbon emissions for your personal travel to and from the event. We are excited to partner with Native Energy to support a carbon offset project we believe in.

In addition to going zero carbon at this event, The Running Kind will be collecting monetary donations for the Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center.
