WWII Veterans Memorial Trail Weighted Race
Mansfield, United States • 18 Oct 2025
The WWII Veterans Memorial Trail Weighted Race is a unique endurance event held in Mansfield, Massachusetts, on a 2.5-mile out-and-back rail trail featuring paved, gravel, and grass surfaces. Participants have six hours to complete as many laps as possible while carrying weighted packs, with their score calculated by multiplying the distance by the weight carried, measured in "Kz" (pound-miles). Racers can adjust their carried weight each lap, balancing strength and speed to maximize their score. The race honors WWII veterans along the historic trail once used by troops departing from Camp Myles Standish. This challenging event combines physical endurance with strategic pacing.
