Rosaryville Veterans Day Trail Race
The Rosaryville Veterans Day Trail Race takes place on November 14, 2026 in Rosaryville State Park, Upper Marlboro, MD. The Annapolis Striders organize two distance options on mostly single track perimeter trails.
- 50K
- 20K
Both courses start and finish at the Pavilion picnic area and use the 9.5-mile perimeter trail. The 50K is run as multiple loops of the perimeter trail and accumulates about 2,600 ft of elevation gain; the 20K follows a shorter loop configuration. The route runs largely through deep woods on buffed single track that is not highly technical, and it is marked with white pie plates and white confidence ribbons. There are two aid stations on the course and a designated drop bag area near the Start/Finish with access at about the 5 km, 20 km, and 35 km points for the 50K. The drop bag area is uncovered.
Entry is limited to 250 participants. Time limits are 8 hours for the 50K and 7 hours for the 20K; runners must reach the bag drop/trail exit point for their final full loop by the published cutoff. Packet pickup is available on race morning at the pavilion area. Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers and to top male and female military in each distance.
Race rules prohibit headphones, pets, and baby joggers. Pacers on foot are allowed on the third loop. Parking is covered by registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
