We randomly draw gift certificates from various local businesses! This ensures everyone has a chance to win.
There are NO age groups or overall awards. THIS is simply a FUN RUN! I promise you will have a blast. Just ask someone who has ran it before and see what they tell you!
A bon fire with drinks, s’mores and delisous soups will await you at the finish.
Make sure that you have trail running shoes, and a light source. What works best for me is a head lamp combined with a small flash light. The trail is muddy in some places so trail running shoes are vital to help prevent you from slipping. You will follow green glow sticks the entire way. If you don’t see any glow sticks you’re going the wrong way. Don’t pass runners on the river trail.
After the race, there will be a bonfire and refreshments.
We are always looking for volunteers to assist at our races. If you are interested, please read the list of volunteer role descriptions on the Volunteer Page and click below to volunteer at the KT Moonlight Madness 10k/5k!
A portion of the proceeds from this race go towards the upgrades and maintenance of the Kanawha Trace Trail through the support of Friends of Kanawha Trace. The Boy Scouts and Scout Troop leaders will be heavily involved in preparing the trails to transform this hiking trail into a running course.
