We are very excited to be carrying the torch for the Moosalamoo Ultra, starting in 2022. Founded in 2012 by John Izzo, this race has become a classic Vermont trail run. A rugged course on beautiful trails, deep in the heart of the Moosalamoo National Recreation Area. Hosted on the scenic grounds of the Blueberry Hill Inn and Outdoor Center, this is a gem not to be missed. While we are very excited to support this event moving forward, we also pledge to continue the family atmosphere and personal touch that John has become famous for. You can bet we will do our best to get John on site for race day, if he is willing because we know he makes this event special!
Race distances of 14 or 36 miles
Registration:
Starting and ending at the picturesque Blueberry Hill Inn, just a short drive from Middlebury, Vermont, the Moosalamoo Ultra and Heavy Half has become a favorite among VT trail runners. Long challenging climbs, black bear sightings, stinging nettles are (for better or worse) hallmarks of this race. Each race is loaded with tough, yet beautiful mountain single track taking you to the top of Mount Moosalamoo with a spectacular view of Lake Dunmore. With most trails in the Green Mountain National Forest the 14 miler has about 2400 feet of elevation gain and the 36 miler has more than 5000 feet of gain. Family friendly and dog friendly, this race brings together a great community and great mountain trails!
New race cutoff! All 36 mile runners must reach the last aid station at approximately mile 31 by 5pm to continue.
