3.1 Miles Fun Run Run

It's back! Join us on May 16, 2026 for the sixth annual, Milford's Merry Miles of May 5k race! This race offers a scenic view around the small town of Milford, KY. The course is flat and fast, with runners starting and finishing in the parking lot of Milford Christian Church. You'll be surrounded by hundreds of acres of farmland as you begin your 3.1 mile journey. Around the 3/4 mile marker, participants will begin to run alongside the beautiful North Fork River. As you reach the half way point, you'll run near an old tobacco barn where you'll have the chance to stop for a sip of water and take in the awesome view. Don't soak in the view too long though, after all, it's a race...so...GO, GO, GO!!! Celebration starts after crossing the finish line, so be sure to hang around for the music, meal, and dessert auction!

All proceeds from this race will go towards Milford Christian Church's annual Christmas Shop. The Christmas Shop is a charitable event that helps to provide local youth with gifts for the holiday season. The Christmas Shop has been able to give 5-6 gifts to each child, providing for more than 350+ kids in 2025. Through your participation, you are helping to purchase toys for the Christmas Shop. It's our mission that every child in and around the surrounding area knows the love of Christ!

BACK AGAIN, TO THE SCHEDULE for 2026, is the Kids Fun Run, Milford's Mini Miles of May! The distance for this event will be 0.5 mile with a surprise gift for all finishers. Participants for this race must be ages 9 and under.

In order to allow parents to participate in the 5k race, we'll be providing a supervised viewing of a Christmas film, inside the church.

We look forward to seeing everyone on May 16th!

    Dirt Days Trail Series - East Fork SP Trail Run

    Sunday, July 26, 2026 8:30 am

    East Fork State Park, Bethel, OH

    The East Fork SP Trail Run is where the Dirt Days Trail Series all began. As the name states, the race will take place on the well-established Backpack Trail, at East Fork Lake State Park. The 5.6 mile course is densely wooded, and might give runners the feeling that they are on the Appalachian Trail. The course reverses direction each year. Note: Previously, this race was called the Backpack Trail Run but there was some confusion as to whether you had to wear a backpack for the race.

    All registration will be done online including on race day.

    We have added a "Trekker" category for those who would like to do the 10+ mile course but need extra time to finish. If you think that you need more than 2-2.5 hours to finish, we encourage you to consider the this option. You can start at 8:00 instead of 8:30. You will receive a time and credit for participation. Also, you can finish before all the food is gone!

    New for 2026: We have added a Trekker category for the 5+ event as well.

    Location:

    East Fork Lake Ohio State Park

    Start Time:

    The One-lap 5.4 Mile Race and the two-lap 10.6 Mile event will begin at 8:30 am.

    We will also have a Trekker start beginning at 8:00. For those who need extra time or just want to start early, the trekker category is for you. We will record your time regardless of the distance that you run/walk. You will not score for the Dirty Dozen or race day competitive awards but you will count towards participation awards and random drawings.

    We will begin to sweep the course around 9:30 so you must complete your first lap by then.

    The Course:

    As the name states, the race will take place on the well-established Backpack Trail, at East Fork Lake State Park.
