Race Information

The Millersylvania Trail Races includes several options, including a 12-hour option and a 12-hour relay on the same 10K course as the 50K, 30K, and 10K course. There's also a 5K. The 10K route is a fast course with only 200ft of elevation gain. All races start/finish at the Millersylvania Retreat Center, which has a lakeside beach and folks can camp at the retreat center or even stay in one of the bunkhouses. There are even canoes and row boats folks can use on the lake!

The goal is to provide a fun, relaxing, rewarding, and welcoming experience for everyone, and Millersylvania is the perfect place to do that.

This race course is fun, scenic, and pretty flat so it is perfect for beginners or those looking to set a PR(personal record). The trail is a mix of single-track trails, wide trails, gravel park roads, boardwalks, and a little bit of pavement mostly through dense and mossy old-growth forests or alongside the lakes and wetlands with a lakeside finish line. Each loop is 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) with about 200 feet of elevation gain per loop. The 50K participants do 5 loops, the 30K participants do 3 loops, and the 10K participants do 1 loop. The 12HR runners do as many loops as they can during the 12-hour window, and the 12HR Relay runners team up (one runner at a time) to get as many loops as they can during the time allotted. It's not unreasonable for a relay team, or even a fast solo runner, to get 100 miles!
