Dixon's Revenge Trail Race

Dixon's Revenge Trail Race : Rollinsford, New Hampshire

Dixon's Revenge Trail Race is a trail running event on Saturday, May 9, 2026, held along the banks of the Salmon Falls River in Rollinsford, New Hampshire. The event offers a mix of rail trail, open fields, dirt roads, and single-track running near the river.

Distances offered:

• 5 Miler - Loop with rail trail, fields, and single-track along the Salmon Falls River
• 5K - Loop featuring rail trail and single-track sections
• Canicross 5K - Same loop as the 5K with additional dog-specific requirements

The 5 Miler begins on the rail trail, passes a water stop, and moves onto a dirt road that skirts a baseball field before entering wooded single track along the river. Part of the course follows an open road where runners should watch for traffic.

The 5K and Canicross 5K run along the rail trail until an aid station near 1.4 miles, then continue onto single track and return to the finish following marked flags and signs.

The Canicross category has specific rules. Only one dog per runner is allowed. Dogs must be attached to the runner with a secure waist-belt leash, leashes should not be retractable and are typically limited to about 5 feet, and dogs must wear a harness with the attachment point off the collar. Participants must pick up dog waste, have proof of rabies vaccination, avoid leaving dogs unattended, and ensure their dog is prepared for a 5K in a busy setting.
