TRAIL FESTIVAL
REDEFINE YOUR LIMITS. CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE. CELEBRATE EACH MILESTONE. Find JOY IN THE JOURNEY.
The Trail Festival is an all-inclusive trail adventure—3 days, 3 unique trails, 1 unforgettable festival. Trail Festival is an endurance experience designed to take you on unique trails showcasing the beauty and diversity of the area you are running in. Each day's trail has long and short options so you choose just how far you will go. In this celebration of trail running, YOU decide what adventures you will have and how far you will go.
WHAT DOES A TRAIL FESTIVAL LOOK LIKE?
3 Days, 3 TRAILS
Trail Festival is a celebration of trails, nature, running, adventure, and the joy we gain from putting ourselves through the pain necessary to transcend these mortal constraints! At trail festival we curate 3 of our favorite trails in the area we are privileged to run in. These trails are selected to show off the beauty and diversity of the area.
3 days of trail running. 3 unique trails. Each day has a short and long option so each athlete can decide how far they will go, how much they will see, what their total cumulative mileage will be, and how much they will need that massage back at festival headquarters that night.
CELEBRATING MILESTONES, TRAILS, CULTURE, & COMMUNITY
Our Trail Festivals are one big celebration. We celebrate milestones reached, we celebrate running, we celebrate the beauty of the area we are in, we celebrate the history and cultural heritage of the area, and we celebrate each other!

Frequently Asked questions
With the 100-Mile Challenge events, the goal for every registered athlete is to run 100 miles in 60-hours or less. As athletes work to achieve that goal, there are Milestones at iconic race distances along the way (Half Marathon, Marathon, 50K, 50 Mile, 100K and 100 Mile). The award you receive at the end of the event is directly correlated to the cumulative distance you run.
For example, if at the end of the event, you ran 55 total miles, you will have passed the 50-Mile Milestone but you will have not yet reached the 100K Milestone (which is about 62 miles) and you’ll receive the 50-Mile Milestone award. The only way to earn the next Milestone award is to run the distance required to reach it.
The Milestones are intended to be "short-term goals" on the way to the ultimate goal of running 100 miles!
