The turn around for the loop back to town is off road and on the site of an 1830s Scottish stone home that sits atop a hill overlooking a pond and wooded area. The race ends at the museum so participants (with their free admission ticket) can enjoy the Hammond Scottish Festival.

    The Maple Run encourages runners at all levels of development and fitness, so the options to participate are many. Runners can graduate from the 5K to the half marathon, or sample the half marathon virtually this year, on their own or with a group of running buddies, to prepare for next year. Participants can also try a bit of both with the hybrid half-marathon option.

    • Half marathon and 5K distances are offered as in-person and virtual events.

    • The half marathon only is available as a hybrid event. A hybrid participant may finish 10 miles of the half marathon on a course of their choosing, indoors or out, anytime before the 5K start on April 18, 2026. The final 3.1 miles are completed at the Maple Run event on Saturday, April 18, 2026 with the pack of 5K participants.

    Low-Cost Youth Registration

    • Participants from 8 to 17 years of age on the day of the Maple Run may select a low-cost youth 5K or half-marathon entry.

    • Half-marathon youth participants are not eligible for age-group and overall placement awards..

    • All youth registrants will receive a shirt and finisher's medallion included in their entry fee.

    Walk or Run

    • The half-marathon route will remain open for four hours, so speedy walkers and runner/walkers have time to finish.

    • Dedicated walkers are encouraged to try the virtual or hybrid option to test their mettle on the half-marathon course or opt for the in-person 5K.

    • The Maple Run start times for the in-person half marathon and 5K are staggered, so finish times closely coordinate between the two distances.

    Wheelchair Athletes

    • The in-person, half-marathon course is fully on road with two steeper hills and open to traffic. Wheelchair athletes, special needs strollers, and certified service animals are welcome on the course.

    The Maple Run Half-Marathon Course

    The Thousand Island Park 5K, or TIP5K, is a memorial footrace to honor the memory of General TJ "Demon" Costello, who served as a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force. This race started at a family reunion in 2013 and has grown to include the local community of TI Park. It's a small, family-oriented race that welcomes all levels of participation. Walkers and strollers are welcomed! Although, be advised that the course covers dirt roads, grassy lawns, and one trail. Also, the route will be poorly marked, open to traffic, and the timing crew will consist of a couple of teenagers with an iPhone. No timing chips here! So, your official time will likely be wrong, if it's recorded at all. However, I can guarantee a great scenic run, good times and camaraderie, and maybe a cold drink or two at the finish line.
