Dirty Kiln Trail Races at Canoe Creek

The Dirty Kiln Trail Races take place at Canoe Creek State Park in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. This event features two distinct distances for trail runners:

  • 10K (Short course)
  • Half-Marathon (Long course)

The short course follows a loop around the historic park, including a climb up Moore's Hill. It continues around the lake on trails that vary from wide paths to winding singletrack. Participants on this route encounter stream crossings and mud.

The long course, or half-marathon, follows the initial 10K loop and then continues into a second loop. This second section includes four additional climbs and offers more elevation changes than the first half of the race.

The event is organized by Allegheny Trailrunners, Inc., a not-for-profit organization. Net proceeds from the races are contributed to predetermined charities and non-profit organizations. Same-day registration is not available for this event, and the courses are designed to provide a variety of trail conditions, including muddy sections and natural water crossings.
