Organiser's description

You loved the Chimney Rock 5 Miler race so much that we decided to make a 10K and 5K race with MORE climbing and MORE ROCKS spread out into different sections of the Washington Valley Park.

These great 10K and 5K distances manage to pack in all forms of trail running to test even the most seasoned trail junkies. On the single track course you will encounter rocks, gnarly roots, rolling hills, stream crossings, a few climbs, and some speedy (scary) rocky downhill descents! This isn't the best trail race for a first timer.

A pre-race briefing email will be sent Wednesday Night before the race with all relevant details.

Check-In will start at 8:00 AM for both races

10K Start at 9:00 AM

5K Start at 9:30 AM
