Join us for the 2nd annual 10 mile and 5k Western Massanutten Trail Run. The course is on the Mountain Bike trails built by the Shenandoah Valley Bicycle Coalition. There is a 10.5 mile course that climbs to the Resort overlook. The course winds down to the northern limits of the trail system. There is another climb to the center section of the trails then decends back to the finish line near the parking area. The 5k run is meant to be an introduction to trail running. The 5k has a good climb and the start, and finishes with a downhill run. Both courses are mainly single track meant for a bike, but there is a good amount of service road at the beginning of the courses as well as at the end. Course maps can be viewed on the website. runthemountain.org
