2026 Jay Peak Trail Races

2026 race is on Sept 5-6 (Labor Day Weekend)!

Congratulations to all 2025 runners! Here are the results! SATURDAY SUNDAY

2026 Registration opening soon!

This is a unique trail running experience designed for the entire family that cannot be matched. With 7 races for all abilities there is something for everyone.  Whether you are a kid who just likes being outdoors (where they belong), someone just trying out your first trail race, a speed goat that loves hammering until your legs give out or an ultra runner that wants to see just how far your body & spirit can go, we have a race for you.

With 3 different hotels & condos fitting every budget, an indoor water park, ice rink, climbing wall, arcade, movie theater, several restaurants and more…..there is plenty to do with the family in between races. All registrants get a hotel discount code, so come, stay & #runJAYPEAK!

Voted: Top 15 best Trail races in the US, Top 4 Trail Races for Kids (Trail Runner Mag), Top 10 Family Trail Races & One of America’s Best Trail Races (Runners World), Masochist’s Ultra Running Bucket List (REI) *NOTE: The current course is harder than when the blog was published.  

Why just run one 5k? You are here all day anyway. 

 That’s correct.  We have designed our 5K series so that you can run all 3 in one day. 

For doing so, we will give you our coveted “I ran THREE 5k’s in ONE day” prize after completing all 3…..also known as our “Runners with Issues” prizes.  Because if running 3 races in one day is appealing to you…then you have a screw loose….& you are our kind of human.
