Massanutten Mountain Trails 100 Mile Run
The event is the 31st running of the Massanutten Mountain Trails race, scheduled for May 15, 2027, with start and finish at Caroline Furnace Lutheran Camp in Fort Valley, Virginia. The course lies on trails in the Massanutten Mountains within the George Washington National Forest in the Shenandoah Valley.
The race offers two distances:
- 100 mile - approximately 18,500 feet total ascent; 36 hour cutoff.
- 100 km - approximately 11,250 feet total ascent.
The trail route features rocky terrain and short but rugged mountain climbs. Organizers provide a Medical Emergency Plan with contact information and directions to nearby medical facilities from each aid station. A Participants' Guide is available as a downloadable document and contains logistical details for runners, crews, and pacers.
Logistical pages for the event cover drop bags, crew instructions, pacers, solo division rules, lodging on-site and off-site, and emergency procedures. The VHTRC sponsors four training runs on the course in the months before the race; these training runs begin on Martin Luther King weekend in January and typically continue into April. Volunteer support is integral to the event and details for volunteering are provided on the event information pages. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
