Oakadoke Trail Runs
Oakadoke Trail Runs is a trail race held at Creekside Trails near Valparaiso, IN on Saturday, August 1, 2026. The course uses single track through lush greenery, pond views and rolling grasslands, with bridge crossings, twists and dips along the way.
Distances
- 4 mile course, one lap
- 9 mile course, highlights of Creekside
- 18 mile course, two laps
The terrain is varied rather than flat, including smooth stretches, rooty sections, gentle climbs and quick descents. Aid stations are placed approximately every 2.0 to 4.4 miles and offer water, an electrolyte drink, sweet and salty snacks, and fruit. The event is cupless: no paper or plastic cups will be provided at aid stations, so participants are responsible for carrying their own containers.
Event logistics include free parking on the Twin Creeks Farm property and onsite camping the night before and after the race. Bib pickup is available on race morning only. A post race meal and beverages are provided for participants and volunteers; family and friends may join the meal for a cash contribution. Every participant receives a custom finisher award, and the top three male and top three female finishers at each distance receive additional podium awards. Special age-based registration pricing is available for runners 19 and under, and the event participates in the Trail Mix Fund to help cover registration for those who cannot afford it.
