About the Run For The Trail 7K Run and 2 Mile Fun Run/Walk
The course starts at a trail access point in Dilltown and follows the Ghost Town Trail, a rail trail that runs through a wooded corridor. The surface is crushed limestone, the kind that is easy on the legs, and the terrain is flat with no real climbing to speak of. The longer distance and the shorter walk-friendly option share the same trailhead.
Registration on race morning is at the Dilltown pavilion, which also serves as the gathering point before the start. Awards lean toward the handmade side: top finishers in the longer race take home wooden train engines carved by a local artisan, and age group winners receive railroad spike trophies. Ice cream is out after the finish.
