Fri, May  1, 2009 - By Noquemanon Trail Network

The NTN Twin-Peaks Trail Run, sponsored by Marquette Mountain and The Sports Rack, will be held on Saturday, May 30th, 2009 12PM.  The course has been lengthened to increase the long run from a 10K to a 10 Mile. The 10 mile trail-run that will summit Mount Mesnard as well as Marquette Mountain.

There is over 1,000 ft of climbing on the 10 miles course (course map, PDF)

If you are interested in a shorter distance (and less elevation change), we still have the 5K Carp River Gorge Challenge. The trail crews have already been out working on the South Trails and we are very excited for this years trail run and continuing our support of Marquettes South Trails.  In addition, the event has been recognized as a National Trails Day event and all proceeds from the event are being set aside for single-track development and support.

Online Registration. The race starts at the M-553 NTN South Trails Trailhead on the corner of M-553 and Mt. Marquette Road.
