Macedonia Trail Race
The Macedonia Trail Race is a trail running event at Macedonia Brook State Park in Kent, Connecticut, scheduled for September 13, 2026. The courses use single track and forest trails with sustained climbs, technical descents, and several viewpoints including the summit of Cobble Mountain where, on a clear day, runners may see the Catskill Mountains.
Course formats and approximate elevation gain:
- 12K - approximately 1,870 ft elevation
- 25K - roughly 3,500 ft elevation, two loops of the 12K course plus a short out and back
- 50K - roughly 7,000 ft elevation, three loops including multiple trips over Cobble Mountain
Aid stations provide water, electrolyte drink, and typical food items, but the event is cupless: runners must carry their own bottle, pack, or cup. The course includes road crossings, technical single track sections, and a grass finish area near the pavilion.
Race policies require following marked routes, no littering on state park land, non transferable bibs, and reporting withdrawals at aid stations. Use of personal music devices is strongly discouraged for safety and trail awareness. Registration opens January 1 and entry fees range from $45 to $95 depending on distance and registration date.
