Buckeye Sun Trail Runs

The Buckeye Sun Trail Runs take place in Lewis Center, OH on August 8, 2026. The event is organized by Greenswell Events and uses a looped trail course that runs near Alum Creek Reservoir. The course is described as a moderately rolling, wide-track trail and will be marked for navigation.

The loop measures 4.1 miles per lap, and runners may choose to complete one to four laps. Each lap returns to a central Celebration Area where earlier finishers and spectators may be present.

Distances available:

  • 7K = 1 loop
  • 13K = 2 loops
  • 20K = 3 loops
  • 26K = 4 loops

Check-in is located at the Start/Finish area just south of the trail entrance at the Boat Launch area. Parking is available at the Galena Boat Ramp off Africa Road; participants are asked to park in designated areas and not in the grass or along the road.

All finishers receive a commemorative finisher amenity. The top three overall male and female finishers for each distance receive awards. Registration closes on Friday, August 7 at 11:59 PM ET. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
