Running with my Gnomies

Running with my Gnomies is a trail race held at Camp Tuscazoar near Dover, Ohio. The event offers multiple distance options and runs on Camp Tuscazoar property through wooded hills and rock features.

  • 50K
  • 25K
  • 9ish mile

The 25k course is a single loop on a mix of single track trails, bridle trails, and short sections of gravel access road. The 50k consists of two laps of the 25k loop. The 9ish mile route follows the same general route and breaks off early to return to the finish.

Aid stations are located roughly at mile 5 for all runners, with a second station near mile 10 for 25k and 50k participants, plus an aid station at the start/finish area that 50k runners reach after their first loop. The race is cupless; runners need a hydration vest, handheld bottle, or reusable cup for refills.

Finishers receive a gnome finisher medal. First and second place age group awards are given for men and women by decade, with handmade gnome awards for age groups. The organizer applies a 10 hour cutoff for finishers.

Packet pickup is available at Camp Tuscazoar the day before the race and on race morning at the race area. Camp Tuscazoar also offers RV sites, rustic cabins, camping, and bunkhouses, and several nearby bed and breakfasts are listed locally.
