11th Into the Darkness Night Trail Run

Event Description

This is the Roanoke Valley’s most unique event. The course will take you through 4 miles of the Explore Park. Much of the course is on IMBA designed trails. The course consists of 3 miles of twisty rolling single track and 1 mile of grass and asphalt roads. These trails will be marked with reflective arrows, glow sticks, and the occasional surprise (nothing scary, this is a family event). Every effort will be taken so that you will easily be able to find your way and stay on course. A light source is mandatory; it is recommended that you have at least a headlamp or flashlight. The race course is a mix of trail and paved and grassy roads. We start you out on a road so that you have time to spread out before hitting the the trail. From there it is a matter of following the person in front of you are the many reflective tacks, glowsticks or trail decor that we have set out for your amusement.
