Blazing Saddles Trail Race
Blazing Saddles is a trail race at Codorus State Park, Pavilion #3, near Hanover, Pennsylvania. The event is organized by the York Road Runners Club and the York Ridge Runners and offers these distances:
- 50K: four laps of the loop
- 25K: two laps of the loop
- 8 Miler: one full loop of the trail
The course follows the Ranger Trail and combines singletrack, horse trails, and under one mile of road. Runners should expect runnable hills, muddy sections, and possible snow. An aid station at mile 8 supplies water, electrolyte drinks, and food. There is an afternoon cutoff to complete the event and an aid station cutoff for the last loop.
Prizes are awarded to the top three men and top three women. Participants who register by February 18 receive event swag. All proceeds support a local animal rescue. Event rules require a visible bib, prohibit bib transfers, and do not allow pacers, crews, deferrals, or refunds. Competitors must stay on the marked trail and pack out trash. The event takes place as scheduled in any weather and does not have a rain date. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
