Skunk Cabbage Classic 10K & Half Marathon
The Skunk Cabbage Classic takes place on Sunday March 29, 2026, in Ithaca, New York. The event is the 43rd annual running and is based at Barton Hall on the Cornell University campus.
Runners can choose between two course options that wind through the Cornell campus, along a paved rail trail, and into the rolling countryside of Ellis Hollow. Both courses are out-and-back and course maps are provided.
- 10K: two water stops, one porta-john stop
- Half marathon: five water stops, two porta-john stops
The event includes pre and post race activities held in the warmth of Barton Hall. For 2026 the race theme features a skunk mascot reimagined as a running robot called Skunktimus Prime, and themed T-shirts are noted as part of the event materials.
