Boulder Field 100
White Haven, United States • 13 Sep 2025
The Boulder Field 100 is a challenging trail running event held at Hickory Run State Park in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. It offers three distances: a 100K ultra run, a 50K ultra run/mega hike, and an 18-mile run/hike. The course features a figure-8 shaped 50K loop, with 100K participants running the loop twice.
Runners encounter about 4,000 feet of elevation gain per 50K, a rugged boulder field crossing, and a demanding one-mile section known as the Shades of Death Trail. The terrain is mostly single-track and multi-use trails, with minimal gravel road. Time limits are 16 hours for the 100K and 14 hours for the 50K, making the shorter race accessible to hikers.
