Come celebrate Powhatan State Park’s 10th Anniversary with a 10-mile run along scenic trails featuring the James River, open fields, and a historic cabin! The trails feature a great mix of terrain. Along the river is flat, fast, and scenic. When you veer away from the river there are some gnarly climbs up into open fields. The views stretch for miles until you enter the forest. Run through some shaded singletrack until you reach the historic cabin ruins. After a steep climb you eventually exit the forest and come back out into the open fields finishing your 10 miles back at the Equestrian Trailhead Parking Lot.
There will be a water station near mile five. All participants registered by September 1st will receive a gender specific short sleeve shirt. Food will be available for purchase after the event from the Cafe at Maidens. Featuring fantastic boxed lunches this food can be added on to your order at check out. All proceeds benefit the Friends of Powhatan State Park, a local volunteer organization dedicated to supporting the mission of Powhatan State Park.
