🔥🚨Next Race: Shawnee Trail Runs!

We're excited for our most grueling and rugged race coming up in one week, on October 3! This is the race that inspired us to start directing races - over 12 years ago. An ultra marathon classic, with remote and challenging terrain, and great low-key community vibes.

You can still register today! And if it's not the 50 Mile and 50K distance, we also have the 13.1 Mile distance option.

We're excited for the 49th Annual Hocking Hills Trail Run set to start tomorrow! Runners will be completing one of five distances -- 50K, 20 Mile, 10 Mile, 5 Mile, or 5K -- in the beautiful Hocking Hills State Park. We're putting all the finishing touches on setup and preparation in anticipation of welcoming all runners!

**We've had a lot of emails come in the past three days about being able to register for the race still (sorry, we are unable to respond to so many emails this close to the race as our time is focused on setting up for the race). Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on who you are), the race has sold out at its capacity of 600 participants. We are unable to allow more entrants, and there will be no race-day registration. We wish we could let as many people possible into the event, but we must abide by our capacity. The waitlist is also past deadline. We hope to see you next year!

The race isn't until April of 2027, but the September price increase is tomorrow for the Athens Ohio Marathon and Half Marathon - make sure to register before the end of the day to save $10.00 on the registration price!
