Kettle Cooker Trail Race
The Kettle Cooker Trail Race takes place at Glenroy Preserve near Nottingham, PA on October 3, 2027. The event offers loop courses on maintained trails with varied terrain and undulating hills. Courses share the same route until about mile 4, where the 5 mile course splits to the finish and the longer distances continue on additional trails. The 50K is two loops of the 25K.
Distances:
- 5 miles
- 25K (about 15.5 miles)
- 50K (about 32 miles)
Trail surfaces include mixed footing, rocky sections, and multiple creek crossings. The 5 mile course has three creek crossings; the 25K and 50K routes have at least six. Trail-specific shoes are recommended for traction and drainage because some rocks can be slick and at least one crossing requires going through the water.
There are four aid stations on course; Aid Station 2 is an unmanned water cache. Aid Station 3 includes a porta potty and seasonal fruit. All porta potty locations will include period boxes. Registered runners receive a timed bib, a race shirt, water and nutrition at aid stations, post-race food and drink options, and a complimentary beer for those of legal age. Packet pickup is available in Oxford at Lola's, 57 S. 3rd St.; race day pickup is also offered. Registration fees vary by distance and the event policy does not permit refunds, deferrals, or bib transfers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
