A.W. Marion Trailfest
A.W. Marion Trailfest is scheduled for June 5, 2027 in Circleville, Ohio and is organized by RunFluent. The event takes place on trails around Hargus Lake near 7519 Warner-Huffer Road and includes looped trail formats and relay options.
Distances offered include:
- 4.5 mile race on a loop
- Half Marathon
- 12 hour daytime solo
- 12 hour nighttime solo
- 24 hour solo
- 24 hour relay
The main loop is nearly 100% single track and runs around Hargus Lake. The course has rolling hills with roughly 450 feet of elevation gain per loop and no major climbs. A few creek crossings may be wet depending on weather.
Cutoff rules vary by event. There are no cutoffs for the 4.5 mile race or the Half Marathon. Multi hour events require laps to be completed in accordance with race rules so that laps count toward final results.
There will be one full aid station at the start and finish area with water, soda, electrolytes, hot food, snacks and other supplies. Crew access is permitted at the start and finish transition area only. Pacers are allowed under event rules; pacers must be registered, wear a pacer bib, and complete full loops with the runner.
All finishers receive a finisher award. Top three men and women for each solo distance receive podium awards and team awards are given for top Male Female and Coed teams. Packet pickup is planned at the race site. Mandatory gear includes a minimum 16 ounce hydration for all runners; 12 hour and 24 hour participants must carry two headlamps or one with extra batteries, a foil emergency blanket, and a whistle. Tent setup is allowed on the day before the event or on race morning following staff directions. The organizer does not issue refunds; deferrals to future RunFluent events are available under the stated deferral policy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
