About The Long Run · Fall Back

Are you in it for The Long Run?

The Long Run will feature a give or take 5 mile loop around Jacobsburg State Park. The course takes you on gorgeous single track as well as some flat & fast gravel trails with about 450 ft of elevation change. Runners can complete one loop, or run as many loops as possible in 3 or 6 hours.

Fall Back is the rendition of The Long Run where the original course is run in reverse! This course is run clockwise from the start. Curious which direction is harder? Come test it out on race day!

In registration you will have to select one event. For a lap to count you must complete it BEFORE the time cut off at 3H or 6H. This is a runner, hiker, walker friendly event! Check in will be from 6:30AM–7AM for the 6H race and from anytime before 10AM for 3H or 5 mile race.

THIS IS A HIKER FRIENDLY EVENT!

We are a cupless event. You must supply your own hydration. Coolers of water will be available to refill bottles between laps or before/after the event. This is a self supported event, therefore we cannot provide fuel to all runners at this time. Please bring your own fueling.

Runners doing the 3H/6H event are allowed to have a bin or bucket less than 30 gallons in size for their aiding. These will be placed near the start/finish line for runners to stop after they check in for their lap.

No limit on crew or support day of event. This event is spectator friendly.

This is a zero carbon event, meaning we take into account the emissions released in relation to hosting this trail race. The Running Kind will be subsidizing the cost to offset the event, however there is a fee included in your registration specifically for this cost. This will offset the carbon emissions for your personal travel to and from the event. We are excited to partner with Change Climate Project to support a carbon offset project we believe in.

In addition to going zero carbon at this event, The Running Kind will be collecting monetary donations for the Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center.

At this event we accept donations for Sneakers4Good and The Center For Animal Health and Welfare.
