About the Hopson Trail Runs - Give Cancer The Bird

The course runs through a mix of wide grassy trails and established wooded paths, entirely free of vehicle traffic. Fall foliage surrounds the whole route, and the organizers note that resident bald eagles have been spotted overhead. Rabbits and squirrels are common trail companions. The race benefits a local breast cancer support organization.

Parking is managed by volunteers with sandwich boards pointing the way. The main lot is at the town hall on Main Street, with a secondary option at a nearby baseball field. A post-race gathering happens at a brewery directly across from the start and finish, with live music and donuts from a local shop on hand.

Common Questions About the Hopson Trail Runs - Give Cancer The Bird

Will I finish last at the Hopson Trail Runs - Give Cancer The Bird?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 47:11, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:14:57, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Hopson Trail Runs - Give Cancer The Bird a good first 3.1 Miles?

A field of 511 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Hopson Trail Runs - Give Cancer The Bird?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 20:43 while the median finisher took 47:11. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
