Two Face 10K gives you the option to race road, trail, or road + trail!

Held annually in August in beautiful North Park from Olympia Shelter, this event is a dual race that combines a 10K Road race, followed by a 10K Trail race. Race day is typically one of the most humid days of the year in western PA. Join us and see what we mean by insane!

In 2026, we race road with the lake on the left, and trail up the switchbacks from Olympia. Are you brave enough to do both?

START TIMES

• 7:30 am - Road Race

• 9:00 am - Trail Race

Afterward, be sure to stick around and cool off with Tim Wu's Famous Shaved Ice and post-race beer from Dancing Gnome Brewing.
