This annual race invites runners to explore the town’s picturesque off-road trails on October 25th. Race morning is marked by mild temperatures, typically ranging from a comfortable 15°C (60°F) to a brisker 20°C (70°F), making for ideal racing conditions. Participants gather at Ashland Central Park, where excitement builds as the start line comes alive with cheers and anticipation. The course takes runners through rolling woodlands, offering firm yet slightly soft terrain that provides both challenge and enjoyment.

Strategically placed aid stations ensure hydration and nutrition are always within reach.
