Swamp Stomp
Terre Haute, United States • 21 Mar 2026
Swamp Stomp Trail Race
The Swamp Stomp is an outdoor sports event located at Hawthorn Park in Terre Haute, Indiana. The event takes place on the park trails, which are maintained but can become wet or muddy depending on the weather conditions. The course is marked throughout the route, and volunteers are stationed at various points to assist participants.
Participants can choose from three distinct distances:
- 5 Mile Run: A trail race for runners.
- 4 Mile Walk: A distance specifically for competitive walkers.
- 1 Mile Run: A shorter fun run option.
The 4 Mile Walk includes specific regulations for entrants. To maintain a fair environment for competitive walkers, participants registered for the walk must walk the entire distance and are not permitted to run at any point during the event.
Awards are presented in several categories following the completion of the races. For the 5 Mile Run, awards are distributed based on overall performance and within age groups separated by five-year increments. The number of awards in each age group is determined by the number of pre-registered participants. The 4 Mile Walk features separate awards based on finish order rather than age. Post-race snacks are provided for participants after the events conclude. Shirts are available for those who complete their registration by the specific deadline in mid-March.
