F.I.T.mas Trail Race
F.I.T.mas Trail Race is a trail running event in Cumberland, Rhode Island, staged from a field beside the Senior Center at 1464 Diamond Hill Road. The venue offers ample parking; participants are advised to approach parking toward the Senior Center as the course starts and finishes toward the back of the park.
The event uses a rolling start format; participants must cross the start and finish lines when beginning and ending their effort so the timing chip records time correctly. Timing is provided by the Orbiter timing system and results are visible live at the timing table and posted within a few days after the event. Participants must wear their timing chip for the entire race.
Medical support on site is limited to basic first aid; no medical professionals are present. Further treatment will be requested through local EMS if needed. Organizers reserve the right to hold any runner from continuing if they are deemed medically unsafe.
Course descriptions and flag colors:
- Kids 1 Mile: Mostly smooth, somewhat hilly loop circling the front of the park, YELLOW flags.
- 5K: More technical than the kids course, separates from the 5 mile course, GREEN flags.
- 5 Mile: Most technical course, rocky sections, hills and winding trails, RED flags.
- 4 Hour: Multi-lap on the 5 mile course; only miles completed within the four hour limit count.
F.I.T.mas is part of the TrailFecta series with two other seasonal races; completing all three earns a three-piece connecting medal and a combined registration discount is offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
