The Blue Crab Bolt Trail Running Series is back for round six. To beat the heat, we moved the races from July/Aug to May/June. We also added a 5K option at each venue. This is the perfect distance for those new to trail races or for those that want to burn it up. Similar to our Backyard Burn races, these trail running courses are fun and challenging and include a mixture of winding single-track hiking trails, stream crossings, grassy fields, and minimal pavement. A point system adding competitor's three-race point totals will be used to determine the top finishers within each age group of the series.

This springtime series will undoubtedly be super popular. So, register early to join in the fun and claim your spot on the starting line.
