Scary Ass 25K/15K & Fright in the Forest 4K
The event takes place on October 31, 2026 at the Fall Creek Day Use Area in Capitol Forest. It is a set of trail races held in a forest setting with marked courses.
Distances include:
- 25K long course that goes to the peak, about 25 km.
- About 14 to 15 km shorter course that does not go to the peak.
- 4K Fright in the Forest short course.
The long course will run to the peak. Due to logging in Capitol Forest, route maps for the year are pending but the three distance options are planned. There are no aid stations on course; participants are responsible for their own water and fuel. Courses will be marked.
Parking requires a Discover Pass and parking may be on the road shoulder near the day use area. A signed DNR waiver is required and must be brought to the start; a separate waiver exists for minors. Entry fees listed are $13.12 for the 4K and $23.75 for the longer courses. Registration is online only, there is no day of race registration, and registration closes Thursday the 27th at midnight.
Postrace offerings include Witch’s Brew, soup and treat bags. Costumes are recommended and pumpkin pie prizes are noted for winners and best costume. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
