The course runs largely on the Metacomet Trail and is roughly 50% technical single track, with the remainder on double-track. The route consists entirely of rolling forest roads or single track that can be extremely rocky. The course route will not change and includes a notable power line hill.
The event recommends that entrants have recent marathon or equivalent trail experience. The 50K has a nine hour cutoff. The race is cupless; participants should plan to use their own cup or handheld bottle. Chip timing will be in use.
Administrative details: registration opens on November 26, 2026; race proceeds support local organizations including the Simsbury Land Trust and the Connecticut Forest and Parks Association. The CT Trailmixers run the event as a volunteer non profit club. Shirts are available for separate purchase.

Refund policy: cancellations before March 1 receive a 50 percent refund; no refunds, bib transfers, or deferrals after that date. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
