🏃‍♂️🌲 Farnum Five.5 (ish) Trail Run 📅 Saturday, September 12, 2026 ⏰ Start Time: 9:00 AM 📍 Start / Finish: Farnum Hill Preserve, 98 Poverty Lane, Lebanon, NH 🏃 Distance: 5.5-ish mile trail run (maybe 5.9… we’ll see! 😏)

🌲 The Course Ready to run, climb, cruise, and have a little fun? The Farnum Five.5 (ish) has a little bit of everything!

The race kicks off with a fast Class VI road / wide trail for the first 1.5 miles. 🚀 Then, just when you're feeling good, we turn up the heat with a short, steep climb to the ridge. 🔥⛰️

Once you’ve conquered the climb, you’ll be rewarded with approximately 0.6 miles of scenic ridge running beneath a beautiful shaded canopy. 🌳😎 Enjoy it while you can… because another heart-pounding 0.6-mile climb is waiting for you!

🎯 At the top, you'll hit the 5K mark, and from there it's time to cruise your way to the finish! 🏁

Most importantly, this race is about having a great time and enjoying the trails. Whether you're chasing a PR, challenging yourself, or just looking for a fun morning in the woods, come out and run with us! 🙌

🏆 Prizes & Giving Back Thanks to our awesome sponsors, Poverty Lane Orchards (right across the street!) 🍎 and Omer & Bob's 🏃‍♀️, we'll have prizes to make things even more fun.

And the best part? ❤️ All proceeds go toward trail and park development, helping make our local outdoor spaces even better for everyone.
