Croom Zoom
The Croom ZOOM 50K/20M/10M courses uses the extensive trails of Croom Park. The trails wind through oak hammocks on a well-defined trail that takes runners through some of the best running terrain in Florida. This course is different than the Fools run and also different than John Holmes run.
For those who haven’t had the pleasure of running at Croom, it is a great experience. Most of the trails have a tree canopy to keep off the sun and the terrain is beautiful and classic Florida.This race takes place at Croom which is within the Withlacoochee State Forest. The forest was named one of the "10 Coolest Places in North America" by the World Wildlife Fund.
The Croom ZOOM Courses
There are 3 distances that are part of the Croom Zoom Trail Runs - 50K, 20M, and 10M. The main running trail is a 10 Mile loop with the 50K running a starter loop. It is a fun course through beautiful Croom Park.
Water Stops / Aid Stations
There will be water stops / aid stations approximately every 5 miles on the course. Since this is a loop course, runners of the 50K & 20M will have a chance to go through the main staging area during the race and can access drop bags. The aid stations will have water, sports drink, gels, and some food, but understand that this is a trail run and there will not be stops every mile.

Race packets can be picked up from 4:30 pm - 7:00 pm on Friday night before the race.
