    Rails to Trails 10 • 15 • 20 Miler

    Once upon a time, trains rumbled along these tracks, carrying passengers and freight through Geauga and Lake Counties. Today, runners get to retrace that historic route, trading steel wheels for running shoes on a point‑to‑point net-downhill adventure that celebrates the spirit of the railway and the beauty of Northeast Ohio. It is a great race for those training for a spring half-marathon or marathon.

    Choose your distance: 20, 15, or 10 miles along the converted rail trail to paved bike path.
