Registration is Now Open!! The Oyster River Youth Association, Durham Parks & Recreation and Madbury Recreation Commission have teamed up to bring back the 5th Trot in the Trees 5K Trail Race and 1 mile Fun Run. The race will be held on Sunday Oct.5th, 2025 at 10:00 A.M. at Tibbetts Field in Madbury, NH. The trail will wind through local trails surrounding Tibbetts Field, including a 2-mile loop through Powder Major Forest, giving participants a great fall experience. Runners will have to negotiate natural terrain, roots, mud, plenty of fall leaves and the “hay-bale hurdle” to finish the race! The 1-mile Fun Run course will test our younger participants giving them a real trail running experience.
In light of the recent Long Family tragedy, we will be donating a portion of this year’s race proceeds to the remaining Long family member through the GoFundMe page that has been established by the Friends of The Long Family and supported by the Lee Fire Department's collection efforts and many others.
Thank you!
