Located on the town line of scenic Hamilton and Topsfield, MA, this 5k/10k trail course takes runners over Vineyard Hill, through sections of Bradley Palmer State Park, along the Bay Circuit Trail, and across Greenbelt's iconic Shaw Field. Most of the trails are wide and rolling, though Vineyard Hill itself adds a challenge to this course!
There is one aid station at the Start/Finish (10k runners will pass it as they go out for their second circuit) that will have snacks, water, and sports drink. Local gift card prizes. Timing by Bay State Race Services.
Day-of registration from 7:30 to 8:45 am.
The race begins at 9:00 am.
This is a Trail Sisters Approved event. See standards here.
This race is part of the North Shore Trail Series. Sign up for the series and find results here.

Learn more about the host city, South Hamilton.
South Hamilton is a postal address assigned to ZIP code 01982 by the Postal Service and is part of the town of Hamilton, Essex County, Massachusetts, United States. The designation arose in the 1960s when the Postal Service built a new modern post office in downtown Hamilton with the intention of closing the original post office 2 miles north on the same road. Due to public objection, the original post office was preserved and remains open to this day. To distinguish between the two post offices in an era when the use of ZIP code was not yet mandatory, the new post office was designated the "South Hamilton" post office.
