Event details
The Odyssey Trail Running Rampage takes place on September 12, 2026, at Douthat State Park in Millboro, Virginia (14239 Douthat State Park Rd). The event is part of the Virginia State Park Adventure Series and offers four trail race options with chip timing, a well marked course, performance wicking shirts, and post-race dinner. Finishers receive an Odyssey pint mug and a finisher award; top three male and female awards are given for each race.
Course, distances, and support
The races use a loop format. The primary loop is approximately 13+ miles with about 2,700 ft of elevation gain per loop; most of that gain occurs in the first three miles. The Six-Miler uses the final five miles of the primary loop plus the Tobacco Hollow Ridge Trail and has over 1,000 ft of elevation gain. Loop distances are reported as slightly long by about 0.3 miles (more plus).
- 50K (31+ miles) - three loops (two half-marathon loops + one six-mile loop)
- Marathon (26.2 miles) - two loops
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles) - one loop
- Six-Miler (6.0 miles) - one loop
Aid stations: one water-only station at mile 3.5 (cabin overlook) and two fully stocked stations at miles 9 and 11.25 of each loop. Aid station supplies include HEED, water, flat cola, potatoes and salt, banana halves, and pretzels. Ultra and marathon runners may stage supplies at the loop finish. The event uses a "no DNF" policy: completing one loop qualifies a runner as a finisher for that loop distance; drop-down finishers are ineligible for overall top-three prizes.
