Broken Toe 50K, 25K and Ruck at Caesar Creek State Park
This event uses a roughly 16 mile loop that starts and finishes at the Campground Parking Area in Caesar Creek State Park, Wilmington, OH. The terrain passes through canopied forest along Caesar Creek Lake and includes rolling hills, gullies and occasional creek crossings. GPS device mileage may vary between about 15.6 and 16.5 miles per loop.
Distances:
- 50K two loops of the course
- 25K one loop of the course
- 25K RUCK one loop with ruck requirements
- 50K RUCK two loops with ruck requirements
The loop contains a mix of trails and a short paved approach to the trailhead. There are four aid stations: two manned stations near the start and around nine miles with snacks, Tailwind, water, hand sanitizer, menstrual products and porta-potties, and two unmanned stations (about 4.5 and 11 miles) stocked with water only. This is a cupless race; no cups will be provided at aid stations. Drop bags may be left at the start/finish for 50K participants.
A 9.5 hour overall cutoff applies. An early start option is available with check-in required on race morning. Ruck participants should carry 15 to 25 pounds based on body weight and report ruck weight at check-in. The event is organized and staffed by volunteers; awards and optional apparel are offered with an apparel order deadline of Oct 1, 2026.
