Run Ultra

Race day is May 23 at 7 a.m.

Bubbletown What The Duck is a 12 hour ultra marathon held at Spring Meadows Park in Boiling Springs, Pennsylvania. Spring Meadows is a beautiful park with mountain views and a mix of tree-lined and open areas.

The race consists of a 1.4192 mile loop run on a lightly rolling course on a smooth dirt/crushed rock surface.

Course is certified by Carl Hendricks through USATF, certification number: PA22030NP

All participants receive a t-shirt at packet pick up along with race number. All participants who complete 25 laps (35.48 miles) individually will receive a finisher buckle. All participants who complete 35.48 miles individually or as part of a team will also receive the coveted What the Duck hoodie. For example, if a team of 5 people run 10 miles per person for a total of 50 miles, all 5 members receive the hoodie for exceeding 35.48 miles cumulatively.

You can participate solo or as a team! Teams can have as many members as they choose and all members will receive the hoodie if the team collectively accumulates 25 laps.

Teams are allowed to run as a relay or multiple members running simultaneously. We are keeping the team competition very open ended so you can challenge your team in the way that works best for you!

Packet Pick up will be May 22 at Fleet Feet Mechanicsburg from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. or on race morning from 6 a.m. to 6:45 a.m. at the race start in Spring Meadows park.

Food and beverages will be provided throughout the event to get you through the day.

Each year, we alternate directions, this year's run will be clockwise.

    In Memory of Steve Fealtman:

    The Friends of Opossum Lake Conservancy (F.O.L.C) is honored to host this event in honor of Steve Fealtman. Steve was a proud US Marine who served from 1981-1985. He continued to serve his community by dedicating his time and serving on the board of F.O.L.C. for 10 years. He was an active outdoorsman who loved kayaking, hiking, biking, running and hunting He spent countless hours enjoying nature and wildlife on the trails and water of Opossum Lake in Carlisle, PA. He also donated many hours of time working alongside volunteers on the Anglers Access Trail that surrounds the lake. In April 2019, Steve Fealtman suffered a fatal heart attack while training for a half marathon. His family, friends, comrades, and community know that Steve had always dreamed of organizing a run or hiking event around the lake. We have organized this event to help achieve his dream and honor his legacy and name.

    This Year's Events:

    Event options include the 6 mile course with obstacles, the 4 mile run, and the 4 mile walk. The terrain includes grassy fields, pavement, rocks, roots, and potentially mud. Participants will see the lake, perhaps some wildlife, and take in fabulous views of the lake. The official trail name is the Anglers Access Trail, and the course will include the new bridge and some additional trails found throughout the park. Feel free to check the area out beforehand or find reviews on AllTrails.com, the PA Fish and Boat commission site, or find a local to give you a tour!

    Awards:

    For the fleet of feet or competitive folks we will have awards for the top male and female as well as 3 deep for age brackets for every 5 years! Results are chip timed.

    Race Shirts:

    Race shirts will be included in all registrations by May 16th this year and are not being sold separately. You must register by May16th to be guaranteed a race t-shirt.

    Other Important details:

    • If you are participating in the 6 mile adventure race with obstacles, we recommend gloves, towels, and a change of clothes. A penalty of approximately 15 burpees will be expected if an obstacle is failed or bypassed.

    • Dress for the weather. There is limited shelter at the lake so you will be outside the entire time you are here. Wear good shoes as the terrain is mixed. Please leave your pets at home. Parking is limited at the lake itself but additional parking is close (within walking distance). Snacks and refreshments will be provided, and we encourage participants to stick around and learn a bit about the lake and enjoy the community that Steve loved so much.

    • All proceeds go to the Friends of Opossum Lake Conservancy. F.O.L.C. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is committed to restoring and preserving the lake through working collaboratively with other friends and supporters and with Community, Township, County, and Commonwealth stakeholders. They do a fantastic job of keeping Opossum Lake alive and running for all to enjoy.

    • Location: There is no address to use for GPS. However, if you use "Opossum Lake Park" on Google it will come up. The park entrance is on Opossum Lake Road, near Easy road. The official signage says "Lower Frankford Township Park. There are quite a few ways to get to the lake, none of them on a straight road!

    Shirt and Bib Pick Up will be race day at 7AM - not the day before like previous years.
