13.1 Miles 32.2 Miles Run Trail

Eddy Trail Races are based at Chi Rho Center on the south side of Lake Sylvia, on the outskirts of Annandale, MN. The 50k and a half marathon run through the Stanley Eddy Park Reserve, a wonderful series of trails in our nook of the state. Big Eddy and The Eddy are more than just races, they are beautiful MN trails, an experience of elevation, pain, perseverance, comradery, and so much more! Whether you are new to the trails or these distances or you are a seasoned trail distance runner, both races will push you to your limit and give you great success. Our aid station crews will be supporting you every step of the way.

Have you ever gone to a race and been rushed before or after because of lodging or other logistics? Have you ever met people on the course and then not seen them again? You have the opportunity to lodge at Chi Rho, hang out with fellow runners for the weekend, and not worry about your meals, all while relaxing at an amazing lake in central Minnesota.

    Join us on Sunday, May 17, 2026 at 10:00am for an exciting annual event that features the amazing scenery and landscape of Millner Heritage Vineyard & Winery! Our winery boasts some impressive modern wine making equipment. All stainless steel tanks, a horizontal pneumatic press, temperature control etc… but we also value older, more traditional wine making methods as well, most notably, barrels and the value they have with producing our more robust wines. Some of the wines made, Jon tries to make them more in traditional Austrian or Hungarian styles, while wines made from grapes like Frontenac are very much Minnesota originals. Come take a winery tour and see the whole process of how the wine is made! Whether you are looking to run, walk or just enjoy the wine this race is a sure thing for a great time and an incredible experience! This race is timed and scored by J3 Timing. Results will be posted at www.J3Timing.com.
