Organiser's Description
Sunday, June 14, 2026.Sometimes you just feel like running.
The Northumberland Run Forest Run will give you a chance to move your legs through some beautiful forest trails. You can pick one of 4 options. You can run The Jenny which is a 4 hour run that happens on a 3K loop. You love the loop so much you visit it again and again and again. Challenge yourself to see how many Jennys you can complete in 4 hours. Each lap will make the trail so familiar you'll feel right at home! You and the trail will go together like peas and carrots.
If you are looking for a different challenge, you can do The Lieutenant Dan. This run explores a wonderful 7.5K loop. You may need some magic legs to help with some of those steep hills. You will run one loop as fast as you can.We also have the Benjamin Buford Blue, but people just call it The Bubba. A fantastic 9K loop that should get you well acquainted with the forest. You may choose to run this one with your best friend and talk about all the ways you can enjoy a day in the forest. You can run, you can walk, you can stroll, you can ..... The Bubba is a one loop run.And for no particular reason, you may decide to go for a little longer run. You can complete one loop of the Jenny. And when you get done, you can do a loop of the Lieutenant Dan. And when you finish that, you run the Bubba. And you may figure, since you ran this far, maybe you should run to Lookout Mtn using an out-and-back route for a total of 24.6K. And at the end, you may find yourself pretty tired, but happy to know you just completed The FULL GUMP.This event is self-supported. Participants are responsible for their own nutrition and water. No marshals are on course. Participants are expected to be self-supported.Participants may wish to carry a cell phone or sounding device (i.e. whistle) to access help if they need to access help. Aid is available at the start area (Location 50 - see map).For the safety of participants, no dogs are allowed in the race.If you want to add some extra fun, dress for the occasion in your best Forest Gump inspired attire and you may walk away with the trophy for the Gumpiest person at the run.Most of the trails (Purple Finch, Black Oak, and Sweet Fern) are free from motorized vehicles. Vehicles have access to some of the trails, such as going up to the Lookout. You may encounter a vehicle, but trail etiquette comes into play. You hear them coming and you just step to the side. Usually a friendly wave is exchanged. We are unable to offer refunds. There are lots of costs involved in running an event that are paid out before the event occurs and cannot be recouped by the organizers. You may be able to transfer your entry if you inform us within a reasonable amount of time.Northumberland Run Forest Run happily supports
