TARC Winter Classic
The TARC Winter Classic is a trail running event held annually at Middlesex Fells Reservation in Stoneham, Massachusetts. It offers challenging distances of 8, 32, and 40 miles along the white-blazed Skyline Trail, featuring rugged terrain with roots, rocks, and elevation changes typical of New England trails. Runners experience scenic woodland paths and views of the Boston skyline.
The course is minimally marked, requiring participants to navigate using maps or GPS. Aid stations provide hydration and snacks, but runners must bring their own cups or bottles. The race emphasizes environmental respect with a Leave No Trace policy and supports inclusivity and community engagement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
