Ridge to River Trail Run

Fun course. Lots of single track trails. Great race shirt. Post-race pancake breakfast.

The 10 Mile course encompasses a little something for everyone. The first four miles are truly a woodsman’s dream as the course takes the runner through deep woods and prime single track. The end of the fourth mile culminates in the arrival of the river trail and the first hydration station. The river trail is both fast and flat. The river trail follows the Guyandotte River for 2.5 miles and will exit to the second aid station. The final 3.5 miles is primarily flat with only one challenging hill to traverse. Once uphill, breathtaking scenery awaits, as the trail overlooks the valley portion of Barboursville Park. There is one remaining hydration station at mile 8.5. The last eight tenths of a mile are downhill to the finish.

Awards will be given to the Top 3 Male and Female finishers of both races. All other pre-registered runners will be entered into a raffle for one of our numerous door prizes. There will not be an “Awards Ceremony”. Awards will be handed out shortly after runners cross the finish line. There are no age group awards, but age group places will be found on results sheets at the shelter.

Runners will receive a race shirt. **Entries must be sent before May 20th to guarantee a size** Shirts are a very soft tri-blend, unisex sizing, XS-XXL. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up.
