The Towpath Trail 10K and Half Marathon! Come join the fun and run the beautifully maintained towpath trail along the mighty Maumee River. Both courses start at Providence Metropark near the dam across the river from Grand Rapids, OH. You'll head out on the historic canal towpath and then return to the finish at the Providence dam and shelter. The towpath is crushed gravel and dirt with lots of shade. You'll enjoy scenic views of the river and run past the historic canal locks and grain mill at the park. You can hang around by the dam at the Shelter after the race and then visit quaint Grand Rapids.
The Towpath Trail 10K and Half Marathon is one of three trail race events in the Toledo Roadrunners Club Trail Race Series in partnership with Metroparks Toledo. It is a great introductory trail race as it is flat, open, and has good footing. It is perfect for just a run or training for an early fall marathon. Other races include the Oak Openings Stampede 5K and 25K races at Oak Openings Metropark on September 29 and Falling Leaves 5K and 8 mile races at Secor Metropark on October 27.
Registration for the Towpath Trail 10K and Half Marathon includes a tee shirt and giveaway to be revealed at a later date. There is a no shirt option at registration where more of your registration fee will go to charity! Our charity partner is Sew Hope.
Towpath Trail 10K and Half Marathon is currently capped at 175 participants. This event sold out 5 weeks in advance of the 2023 event.
