The event on June 19, 2027 at Button Farm in Germantown, MD, features two trail race distances and a virtual race option. The courses run on the Schaeffer Farm Trails and are described as hilly and scenic. The 6k is one lap and the 12k is two laps around Button Farm. Walkers are welcome.
Points from this event count toward the Year-Long 5k, 10k and Back of the Pack Series, and toward the Spring Series. The Menare Foundation, Inc. is the event charity; the foundation focuses on preserving Underground Railroad legacy and creating experiential history programs.
