Welcome to the Traverse City Trail Running Festival! Northern Michigan’s premier celebration of off-road running, this event takes you through the stunning Pere Marquette Forest along a variety of singletrack and wide doubletrack trails. The festival kicks off on Friday evening with a two-person 10K relay and a 5K, followed by Saturday morning’s exciting lineup of individual races: 10K, 25K, 50K, 75K, and 100K, plus the 100K relay. All races start and finish at the Timber Ridge RV & Recreation Resort. After your run, stay and unwind with post-race snacks, beverages, fire pits, yard games, and cheer on fellow participants. We can't wait to see you there!
