2025 race, results, and the November challenge
The tenth annual Raven Rocks Run took place on November 9, 2025. The race had 264 finishers and was supported by a crew of about 40 volunteers. There was a water stop at the 4 mile mark, located at the top of the fire tower climb, the highest point on the course. Photographs and full results from 2025 were posted online.
A separate virtual event, the Raven 100k November Challenge, ran from November 1 to November 30, 2025. The challenge required participants to walk, hike, or run 100k during November and log distances on the official event results site. Finishers who reported the required distance were eligible to receive a custom finisher woodallion and to claim achievement badges. The organizers recorded program metrics, membership donations for the Friends of Trailside Museum and Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, and ongoing fire tower restoration activity at the park.
