Petal to the Medal Endurance Event

Experience the serene beauty and challenging terrain at the Petal to the Medal Endurance Event held at Daniel Stowe Conservancy on August 8, 2026. The race begins at 7:00 AM and lasts for a full eight hours, providing ample time for participants to explore as many 5K loops of the trail course as they desire.
This event is designed to accommodate runners of all paces—whether you're an experienced ultra-distance athlete or new to the sport. The inclusive atmosphere encourages personal growth and community building without the pressure often associated with competitive races. Participants can choose their own path, from a single loop walk to pushing through for several hours or even attempting more demanding distances.
Inspired by sustainable race practices promoted by Human Powered Movement, this event emphasizes individual challenge over speed or competition. It offers an opportunity to embrace and overcome personal obstacles in the company of like-minded runners who share your passion for trail running.
Join us at Daniel Stowe Conservancy where nature's beauty meets human determination.
