The Richmond Trail Running Club was started as a small meetup to build trail running community in 2019, and in 2022 we adopted our club mission - to provide an inclusive and welcoming space for runners to build community, challenge themselves, and explore local outdoor spaces. We organize different weekly running adventures in the Richmond area, and are proud to direct the ALFC 50/26k as well as RUTFest, a 36-hour charity run festival on a beautiful 7-mile looped course in Williston VT each fall. Our events have supported causes such as addiction recovery, wilderness therapy, and healing and support for veterans. This summer, we are proud to be the new adopters of the Duck Brook trail, a 4.5 mile side trail abutting the Long Trail in Bolton, Vermont.

Group Run Calendar

We encourage all club members to post group runs, hikes, or outings on our club calendar! In doing so, please state the time, general pace, location of your adventure, and any other pertinent details.
