Powisset Farm Trail Run - Fall
The fall edition takes place Sunday, October 25, 2026 at Powisset Farm, 37 Powisset Street, Dover, MA. The event stages trail running on Powisset Farm and neighboring Noanet Woodlands and offers multiple race distances.
- 8.6 miles
- 5.6 miles
- 3.1 miles
- 1.5 miles
Runners start on a 1.5 mile Meadow Loop, a flat grassy trail on farm property, then continue into Noanet Woodlands. Trails in Noanet include crushed pine needles, loose gravel, exposed roots and dirt with flat sections, rolling hills and a short but steep technical ascent and descent of Noanet Peak where a view of the Boston skyline is visible. The 8.6 mile course uses two loops of the Noanet trails without a second ascent of Noanet Peak. The 8.6 distance was revised from a prior listing of 8.3 miles after remeasurement; the route was not changed.
There will be one aid station in Noanet Woods providing water. This is a cupless race so participants must have their own hydration carrier; a limited number of cups and hydration belts will be available for purchase at the event. Runners in the 8.6 mile race pass the aid station three times, 5.6 mile runners twice, and 3.1 mile runners once.
Event amenities include post-race food and cider donuts, guaranteed soft cotton t-shirts for 8.6, 5.6 and 3.1 mile registrants who register by October 11, 2026, other Barn to Run swag, awards for the three fastest men and women in each race, and family activities including a barnyard and free pumpkin painting for children under 15 for the first 25 kids. Cut-offs: 1.5 mile must be completed in 25 minutes; 8.6 mile in 2 hours 15 minutes; other races must finish by the last 8.6 mile participant.
