The Algonquin 50K is a 50-kilometer trail race held in Pocomoke City, Maryland, at the Pocomoke River State Park.

The race features a modified out-and-back route with well-stocked aid stations every 5-6 miles providing water, nutrition, and snacks.

Participants should prepare for cold and variable winter conditions, including rain, snow, or ice. The event is community-driven, eco-friendly, and volunteer-supported, aiming to promote and maintain local trails. Finishers receive handmade local ceramic mugs as swag.
