Marilla Trail Race

09/29/2025

They deserve a post all for themselves... Please help us send a big "THANK YOU" to all of our Marilla Trail Race volunteers! It takes a village to make race day successful and our 2025 volunteers stepped up and made it happen. Grooming trails, stuffing bags, making phone calls, parking cars, serving lunch, manning aid stations, sweeping trails, cleanup, and more... our volunteers give of themselves and their time. Thank you, volunteers! We also want to give a shoutout to our Marilla Trail Race Committee who work year round - thank you!

Pictured here: Our volunteer race sweepers who follow behind the runners and make sure everyone gets in safe. Thanks Just Riding Along Bike Shop for always organizing sweepers on race day!

Race day is THIS Saturday! Be sure to get registered! Check out this beautiful view of the final stretch of the Marilla Trail Race! Clearly marked trails take runners over a variety of terrain- gravel paths, dirt trails, and winding single track, with aid stations spread throughout. Except for a single road crossing, the 14 mile course is 100% off-road, and the same goes for the 7 mile route. The race features state-of-the-art chip timing by Score This and the historic covered bridge serves as the finish point for both race distances.

We're excited for our 12th Annual Marilla Trail Race on Saturday, September 27th! Choose from our 7 mile race, 14 mile race, or 4 mile noncompetitive hike. Be sure to get registered! T-shirt, lunch, and finisher medal are included.

This year’s Marilla Trail Race participants will have one less reason to believe the race director’s off his rocker. Bradford’s Josh Preston has spearheaded the successful but grueling 7- and 14-mile cross-country race since its inception. Now in its 12th year, the Marilla Trail Race is known ...
