Virginia 100 Mile, 50 Mile, 50k & 25k


  • New River Trail State Park 116 Orphanage Drive Max Meadows, Virginia, 24360 United States (map)

The Virginia 100 mile, 50 mile, 50k and 25k by Run Bum Races is a weekend of running, camping, local food / drinks, friendships and hopefully some personal bests! It happens at peak fall colors along the New River. This race takes place on the New River Trail, a 57 mile rails to trails path. Most of the trail is right along side the MASSIVE New River. Beautiful orange and yellow leaves at peak fall colors light up the river above its rapids and waterfalls.

You will cross over many old train trestles that are several hundreds of feet in length crossing the New River several times. Foster Falls, home of beautiful rapids, beckons runners with its hum of rushing water. The trail itself is dirt / crushed gravel. The elevation change is minimal. Most of it is completely flat or a 1% grade. This is an extremely runnable maybe too runnable course. If you are looking for a PR or your first 100 mile, 50 mile, 50k or 25k then this is it! Aid stations pretty much every 5-8 miles. There is lots of crew access.
