    Three days of summer trail running on dirt paths through a local city park at increasing distances. Hot and sweaty summer running in a fun-setting. Course is suitable for all ages and ability levels. Participants at the Joe-Zilla 5-Miler and the full 3-race Trailzilla Series will receive race singlets.

    The event is organized, conducted, and results generated by the Peninsula Track Club. Registration is open to the public and members of the Peninsula Track Club. The entire Trailzilla race series benefits the PTC Scholarship funds.

    We are planning to give awards for each Trailzilla race to the top 3 overall male & female, top male & female age group winners (5-year age groups), including 14 and under, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75 and older, and top 3 male & female Walkers. Winners will only receive one award (if a runner receives an overall award they will not receive an age group award).

    Awards for the 3-race Trailzilla Series will be given for top finishers for the 3 races to top overall male & female, top male & female age group winners (5-year age groups), including 14 and under, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75 and over, and top male & female walker. To be eligible to win in this category runners/walkers must complete all 3 Trailzilla races. Walkers must walk all 3 races to be eligible for top male/female walker. Tie-breaker for each category will be the ranking in the Joe-Zilla 5-Miler. Winners will only receive one award (if a runner receives an overall award they will not receive an age group award).

    Awards for individual races will be based on ages on race day. Awards for the 3 race series will be based on ages on 16 June 2026, the date of the first race in the series.

    Walkers must walk the entire course. Walkers who jog or run any part of the course will be moved to the running category for the race and series.

    Race day registration will be available for each race beginning 1-hour before race start depending on availability. We will update social media with status.

    The Noland Trail 50K & Relay gives runners the opportunity to race the ONLY event run on the beautiful Noland Trail in The Mariners’ Museum Park. The 50K will consist of 6 laps on the trail, and a short section of course before and after each trail lap. Relay teams can be made up of 2-6 team members, and take on the 6 laps together. In between laps runners can hang out together in "Tortuga" and enjoy time with one another. All runners gain access to the Mariners' Museum Fall Festival that will feature live music, craft beer & cider tastings and activities for the entire family.

    The race start times are set up so that the slowest runners/teams start first (7:30AM is first wave of runners), and throughout the morning gradually faster runners/teams will start, with the fastest runners starting around 8:45-9:00AM. This helps to keep congestion down on the trail, and also makes it so that most participants are finishing around the same timeframe. Start times are determined using the mile pace submitted during registration. Team start times will be based on average pace of the team. Start times will be posted about 2 weeks prior to the run.

    Just in time for Christmas, this thrilling two-loop course invites runners and walkers alike to wind through campus and the woods behind Peninsula Catholic High School, all decked out in Christmas lights and full of holiday cheer. Best of all, 100% of registration profits (after costs) will be donated to charity.

    But which charity? A number of teams will be competing for a grand prize: the right to choose which charity will receive 50% of the race registration profits. No matter what, the other 50% of race profits (and donations) will go straight to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. You don't have to be a part of a team to race, walk, or donate. We encourage participants of every skill level to come out and participate, build community, and make a positive impact!

    The race is hosted PCYT, a club with a mission to teach teenagers that community service and acts of kindness can be fun. To see examples of their good work like helping the police clean up a beach, packing lunches to feed the homeless, or donating a car to refugees, check out their YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@peninsulacatholicyoutube
