**IMPORTANT UPDATE**
Trail Maniacs “Riverside Trail Adventure” was scheduled for September 8, 2018 at Bowl & Pitcher in Riverside State Park. Due to permit conflicts this event is rescheduled to Sunday, September 30, 2018 at the7 mile airstrip. Especially after our cancellation from last year, we cannot tell you how sorry we are to have to do this.
If you have registered for this year’s event using a rollover entry from last year or a volunteer credit, your entry will roll into the new date or you can still use your credit for another 2019 Trail Maniac event.
Personally, I think this event might be cursed! :(
other stuff
Welcome to Riverside State Park. After last years cancellation, I am excited for a little race redemption. This course will show you some sections of the park that most people have not seen.
*** Don't forget this race we will be giving away over $4000 worth of prizes from Fleet Feet CDA, Patagonia, Ultimate Direction and Orange Mud. Every runner is eligible, must be present to win!
*** WE WILL START AND FINISH OUT OF THE 7 MILE AIRSTRIP***
I know it’s September but we are celebrating Octoberfest!!! That’s right: brats, sauerkraut, potato salad and adult beverages from Growler Guys CDA.
Discover Pass is required!
I am looking forward to hanging out with all of you and if you have not run with Trail Maniacs before, I think you’re in for a treat. You see we are about the friendships and companionship that trail running gives, we do not have race medals or other trinkets, but we do have a killer post-race party. I think the memories and free race photos are priceless.

Blind format
Welcome to the Riverside Trail Adventure. I have been kicking this idea around in my head for awhile and have decided to offer something you may not be used to. This year we are adopting a similar format to what some of the larger mountain bike enduro races do. You will be running a "blind" course meaning you will not have a course map or elevation profile to view ahead of time. No reason to freak out though, the course will still be appropriately marked and you will not get lost, you will just not be able to preview the route or the elevation profile. Your distances will still be a 10K (ish), a 25k (ish), and a 50k (ish). You will also be given an amount of elevation gain and loss for the entire route and the approximate location of the aid stations. So are you ready to get your adventure on? The beauty of Riverside is this course will change every year.
