Virginia Trail Running Festival

Experience the beauty of the Virginia Trail Running Festival by Run Bum Races, a scenic weekend event set against the vibrant fall colors along the New River Trail. Runners can expect a flat and runnable course with minimal elevation change, making it ideal for achieving personal bests or tackling longer distances like a 100 or 50 miler. With aid stations every 5-8 miles and ample crew access, participants can enjoy a safe and well-supported race experience. The event also offers a relay option for teams of up to 8 runners, with unique trail routes and the opportunity to explore the picturesque surroundings of Foster Falls. Make the most of your race weekend by exploring nearby attractions such as Fries River Park, Shot Tower, and Grayson Highlands, home to the famous wild ponies.
