Veterans Trail Festival presented by Flick Financial

🏃‍♂️ABOUT THE RACE

"THAT WAS HARDER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE!" - This is the most common comment heard from finishers of the RSMC and PA 50K and 20Miler trail races! The course is a challenging and gnarly one in Raccoon Creek State Park, Pennsylvania. There is a 5k run/hike as well and those participants can FUNDRAISE also!
