Event Description

Join us for the inaugural THP Trail Fest in highly forested Tug Hill Plateau region of NYS. Yes, that region gets more than it's fair share of snow in the winter but come Saturday July 8, 2023 temps and general conditions should be ideal for either a 50K, 25K or 10K trail run on the XCountry ski trails that make up both the Osceola Ski and Sport Resort and the Osceola Tug Hill XC Ski Center. All three distance events will be run on wide grass trails that meander through the two properties. The courses will be carefully marked with turn arrows, will be modestly supported (water/electrolyte drinks/gels) but you are encouraged to bring your water bottles to fill along the way. Winners (M/F) of the 50K and 25K events will receive a pair of VJ trail sneakers, well also award top Masters winners for each event, winners of the 10K trail run as well as various age group winners. 

Work hard, play hard...we are planning on a very robust post race experience with a full on chicken/ribs BBQ (Vegan options as well) and live music to entertain you while you recover from your focused effort. 

We (Willow Running/Willow Adventure) are all in on this effort to make sure that this event is worth the expense and travel. We hope you'll join us as we celebrate both healthy living and adventure.
