Farnum Five.5 Trail Run
The Farnum Five.5 is a trail running event at Farnum Hill Preserve in Lebanon, New Hampshire, held on September 12, 2026. The listed distance is approximately 5.5 miles; the organizer notes the exact distance may vary.
The course begins on a fast Class VI road or wide trail for about 1.5 miles, then shifts to a short, steep climb up to a ridge. Runners follow roughly 0.6 miles of ridge trail beneath a shaded canopy before a second 0.6 mile climb. At the top of that climb the course reaches the 5K mark, after which the route descends and proceeds toward the finish.
Prizes are provided by local sponsors including Poverty Lane Orchards and Omer & Bob's. All proceeds from the event are designated for trail and park development in the local area.
The description emphasizes mixed terrain with roadlike sections, steep climbs, ridge running, and downhill segments. The event location is listed as Farnum Hill Preserve, 98 Poverty Lane, Lebanon, NH. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
