Mt. Tom Trail Race
The Mt. Tom Trail Race, held in Massachusetts' Mt. Tom State Park, offers runners a challenging experience amid stunning fall foliage.
Participants can choose from a solo 25k race with 3,600 feet of elevation gain, a 2-person 25k relay, or a solo 10k. The course features rugged single-track trails with aid stations approximately every 5 miles. The race starts and finishes at Bray Lake, with limited parking encouraging carpooling.
Proceeds support the Kestrel Land Trust's conservation efforts in the Connecticut River Valley. The event fosters a welcoming atmosphere with prizes for top finishers, costume contests for relay teams, and accommodations for athletes with disabilities.
