The Long Run - Fall Back

The Long Run - Fall Back

The Long Run is built around a give-or-take 5 mile loop at Jacobsburg State Park. The route combines single track and flat, fast gravel trails and includes about 450 feet of elevation change. Runners may complete a single loop or run as many loops as possible within timed formats of three or six hours. The Fall Back edition uses the same original course as the Spring edition but run in the opposite direction.

Available event formats:

• 5 Mile
• 3 Hour
• 6 Hour

The Spring Forward edition is scheduled for April 4th 2026 and the Fall Back edition for November 8th 2026, both at Jacobsburg State Park. A course map is provided in downloadable GPX format.
