Firebird Trail Races

The Firebird Trail Races, held in Windham, Maine, offer challenging trail running events with distances of 13 miles, a marathon, and 50K. The courses feature a technical 10-mile loop through Lowell Preserve and North Falmouth Community Forest, with additional loops for longer distances, marked clearly with flags and signs. The race emphasizes community and giving back, requiring participants to donate at least $20 to a non-profit of their choice.

Aid stations provide water, snacks, and electrolyte drinks. Finishers receive a wood-carved Firebird medal, and top runners earn awards. The event supports local trail systems and fosters a supportive, spirited atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
