Event
The Topo Trail Marathon, organized by Topo Adventure Sports, is scheduled for Sunday, December 7, 2025, at East Fork State Park in Bethel, Ohio (3294 Elklick Road). The event includes three race distances on the same loop course.
- 6.55 miles (Quarter)
- 13.1 miles (Half)
- 26.2 miles (Full)
Each race uses the same loop: one lap for the Quarter, two laps for the Half, and four laps for the Full.
Course and logistics
The course is a 6.55 mile loop run entirely on singletrack mountain bike trails at East Fork State Park. Aid stations are located at mile 2, mile 4.5, and mile 6.55. The start/finish aid station is stocked with water, a sports drink, bananas, and salty snacks; the other aid stations provide water and a sports drink. There is a race cutoff that prevents starting new laps after the cutoff time. Packet pick up is available and there is no race-day registration. Entry includes professional chip timing, portable restrooms, a long-sleeve race t-shirt (t-shirt deadline November 20), a pint glass, and a finisher medal. Directions note using I-275 to the Route 125 exit and following Park Road 2 to the Indian Mound Picnic Area. Registration is handled through RunSignUp.
