Standing Boy Trail Festival
The Standing Boy Trail Festival takes place in Columbus, GA at the Standing Boy Trails over three days in September 2026. The event includes multiple trail races and benefits the Standing Boy Trail System. The organizer is Revolution Running Co.
Distances offered include:
- Night Time Vertical 5K
- 10 mile
- 10 mile Canicross
- 50K
The primary running course is a 10 mile loop that returns to the start and finish area. The 10 mile race completes the loop once and the 50K completes the loop three times. Runners may set a drop bag at the start and finish for the 50K, and a fully stocked aid station will be available on course.
The Night Time Vertical 5K is an out-and-back route with about 400 feet of elevation gain and requires a headlamp or light. The Canicross event uses an opposing loop to reduce trail congestion and follows the 10 mile race start.
Per-participant items differ by distance: each finisher receives a unique medal; 5K participants receive a small insulated cooler, 10 mile participants receive a beach towel, and 50K participants receive a t-shirt. Parking requires prepayment unless the entrant holds a year pass, and entry is limited by parking capacity. Time limits are set at 9.5 hours for the 50K and 3.5 hours for the 10 mile. Refunds are 100% until three months before the event date, after which no refunds are offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
