This amazing 10 mile trail race uses some of the most brutal, rocky, and challenging trails to be found in Eastern Pennsylvania. The course is very hilly and has numerous small stream crossings. Although this event should be considered somewhat dangerous and only for experienced trail runners, it is probably one of the most scenic races that you will encounter. Beautiful hilltop views of the Susquehanna River, clear feeder streams, huge rock formations, and an abundance of Mountain Laurel and Rhododendrons will greet the first 200 accepted entries. You must be 10 years old or older to enter.

AWARDS CEREMONY TO FOLLOW
REGISTRATION
Before you sign up please note we DO NOT and WILL NOT offer any refunds, deferrals, bib switches or transfers of any sort for any reason. We will not respond to any email inquiries asking for such requests. If you do not like this rule please do not sign up for this race.
All runners must register using their legal names printed on their drivers license. All runners must sign a waiver either electronically via online registration or at race day registration.
This event is held rain or shine.
RACE BIBS
Race bibs will have a chip on the back for chip timing Please do not fold or damage the chip - doing so will result in your time not being recorded and we don't want that to happen.
Race bibs MUST be worn on the FRONT of the runner and VISIBLE at ALL TIMES so we can check runners in at aid stations and verify at the finish.
You must run under your own registered race bib / registered name. Running under someone else bib or name that is not yours is not allowed.
NO BANDITS
No one other than the registered runner may run in the race. The assigned race bib is only for the use of the registered runner and no runner shall transfer or give a bib to another non registered runner. Any person running under another runners bib number is not allowed or tolerated.
Runners agree not to allow any unauthorized use of a race bib or registration. If so both the non registered runner and registered owner of the bib will be held solely responsible for any action including legal action for allowing another person to use their registration.
Why we stress this point and make it a "Big Deal"?
Bib numbers our YOUR identifier out on the trail. If their is an emergency your bib number tells us who YOU are in an emergency. It allows us to contact your emergency contact information if needed because we will know who you are. We also need to know who is out on the trail and if we are looking for someone and we think we are looking for "John" or "Sarah" and yelling those names on a trail and your running under someone else's bib and your name is actually "Bill" or "Jane" what good does that do? We also have private property owners land that we run on and waivers that need signed. I could go on but you get what I'm saying.........
CHIP TIMING
This event is chip timed. The start of the race is a gun time. Meaning the race will start (along with everyone's time) at the same time 10:00am. So the closer to the starting line you may want to be. Your time will be recorded at the finish.
Aid Stations / Water Stops:
It is recommended that you carry your own water, power bars, gels and anything you feel you may need out on the trails. If allergic to bees (see our bee warning), bring what you need, just in case. We will have several aid stations along the trail:
Road Crossing (Mile 2) - WATER ONLY
Aid Station #1 House Rock (Mile 3) - WATER / SPORTS DRINK ONLY
Aid Station #2 Pinnacle Overlook (Mile 7) - WATER /SPORTS DRINK/ BANANA / PRETZELS / CRACKERS & MORE
FINISH LINE: POST RACE PICNIC- We will provide food, chips, pretzels, other snacks, water, sodas and other goodies in pavilion #2 after the race. Please plan to stay and enjoy the party and award ceremony. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted at the race site.
COURSE MARKINGS & COURSE WARNINGS
The Conestoga Trail Race is a well marked course and marked with ORANGE RIBBON. This race DOES NOT always stay on the Conestoga Trail. It goes onto unmarked trail and private property. Even those spots are well marked with ORANGE RIBBON. FOLLOW THE ORANGE RIBBON AT ALL TIMES. Once off private property from Bridge Valley Rd to the finish we follow all current reroutes of the trail system. We do not use any closed trails on public lands!!! Follow the ribbon!!!!
BE TRAIL SMART! Although the course is well marked it is ultimately the responsibility of the runner to stay on course. If you do not see Orange Ribbon - YOU ARE NOT ON THE TRAIL and that means you might get ALOT of tough extra miles or perhaps totally lost. We only want you to get the miles you paid for so be sure to stay on a trail where there is Orange ribbon. If you do not see ribbon and are lost go back to last spot you saw ribbon and get back on trail. This race has a sweeper and we check you in at each aid station but you must be responsible to stay on course.
NO COURSE CUTTING - Course cutting is cheating. You must follow the marked race course.
If you require assistance along the course PLEASE STAY ON THE TRAIL!!!!! If you can make it to an aid station please do so and we can assist you from there. If you cannot make it to an aid station and you see another runner please ask the runner to report you to the next aid station. We will have fresh legs available to reach you from an aid station. Otherwise our race Sweepers will locate you as they sweep the course. It is important to stay on the trail.
Course Marshalls and Volunteers - You must listen to the directions of all course marshals' and volunteers. ANY disrespect towards a course official or volunteer is unacceptable and will not be tolerated and may lead to disqualification. Our volunteers make the race happen and give freely of their time. We love our volunteers!!!
THERE ARE BEES ON THIS COURSE
If you have a known allergy you ARE REQUIRED to carry an EpiPen - at least one & Benadryl and any other medication. Bees and bee stings can be very serious and very dangerous. Please take this precaution seriously. We want everyone to have a fun and safe race and also know there are bees / yellow jackets on this course. Enough that the Conservancy even has signs posted of the danger and have closed preserves due to the danger. And if there is an emergency depending where you are on the trail it can take some time to reach you.
DO NOT LITTER
This really should go without saying, however, if you are caught littering you will be disqualified from the race and asked to leave the course. Litterbugs will not be tolerated. You'll be banned from any races we put on in the future.
CUTOFF TIME
EVERY RUNNER MUST READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS CUTOFF TIME AND THE RULE. If you don't like it please do not sign up for this race.

You must check in to this aid station with 2-1/2 hours. This means you must be physically within the aid station within the cutoff time. If a runner reaches the aid station at the 2-1/2 cutoff time they will have 5 minutes to depart or they may not continue.
There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this cutoff time. Failure to comply will result in immediate Disqualification from the race and a permanent ban from running the race in the future. If you do not like this rule please do not sign up for this race.

THE 2025 SPOOK HILL CIDER & WINE 4-MILE RUN HAS BEEN CANCELED, but we hope to bring this classic back in 2026, so put it on your calendar for next year!
Why did we cancel the 2025 race? The short answer is that one of the key landowners on the course has put their property on the market, thus our ability to utilize the orchard portion of the course is in question. We will reach out to the new owners at the appropriate time to begin land-use negotiations.
I’ve always prided myself on giving our runners a great course and a wonderful, inclusive race-day experience. Hopefully we will be able to bring Spook Hill back, bigger and better than ever, in 2026!

RIDE vs. RACE and PRIZES
Please remember this is a ride for a great cause and not a race for a trophy. We plan to ride together in small groups, which is safer and more fun. Since the event is not timed we've decided to award prizes using a raffle approach. Riders will receive a raffle ticket with their packet at the end. After the ride at our celebration event, we will draw tickets for door prizes donated by our sponsors.
RIDE CATEGORIES
There are only two categories for this year's event, a Full-Pull and a Fun-Ride. For the longer Full-Pull, riders will start together at Backlick Road Station and riders for the short Fun-Ride will start together at a later time at Manassas Park Station (as the peloton passes through).
DEPARTURE AND RETURN:
Full-Pull riders may choose to begin their day at either Manassas (Broad Run Station) or Springfield (Backlick Road Station).
If you start in Manassas at Broad Run Station, transportation will be provided to the starting line. You may park at the Broad Run Station. Please know that the transportation will depart at 8:00 a.m. with or without you, so don't be late!
If you choose to begin in Springfield at Backlick Road Station, please park at the station and plan to join the pre-ride briefing at 8:45 a.m.
The ride departs Backlick Road Station promptly at 9:00 a.m.
Transportation will return riders to the starting point. The transportation will depart Broad Run Station promptly at 1:30 p.m. If you need a ride back, don't miss it!
RIDE ESCORT and GEAR STORAGE and SUPPORT
For the safety of the group we have arranged for escort vehicles within and at the rear of the peloton. Riders will be able to store their gear (such as a jacket you may shed as we ride) in one of the vehicles and retrieve items at the end. Additionally, if a rider has a mechanical/flat, they can place their bike in a vehicle and ride to the next station stop for support.
HOTEL ACCOMODATIONS
If you don't want an early start, consider staying overnight. We have not reserved a block of rooms but there are rooms available in nearby Manassas on the south end of the route and nearby Springfield on the north end of the route.
BREAST CANCER AWARENESS and PINK SOCKS
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This ride is meant to raise awareness, especially for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. Some of us ride in memory of our friend Maria Foster. We'll be adding a link below to the JustGiving.com website. We ask that you wear PINK socks for the ride.

Staging Order for amateur races will be based on the most recent CrossResults.com ranking and USCX standings, using the following criteria:
The top 8 riders in the current USCX series standings who are pre-registered will be staged on the front row.
Remaining riders will be staged by CrossResults.com ranking.
All categories will reserve four spots in the third row, which are to be used for promoters’ discretion call-ups.
The first race of each year shall stage racers by their CrossResults.com ranking.
Those classes consisting of only cat 4/5 men or cat 4/5 women are staged by order of registration - starting with those who registered earliest.
UCI races will be called up per UCI regulations.
Feeding:
For UCI races only: No feeding is permitted. Riders are advised to add a water bottle on their bikes if necessary. Accepting hand-ups from spectators – including bottles, cans or money – is not permitted and will result in disqualification. No alcohol is permitted on the course or in the technical area.
For USAC races only: Rule 4A15: Feeding is generally not permitted unless specifically authorized by the Chief Referee. If authorized, there is normally no feeding in the first two and final two laps of the race. The location of feeding will be determined by the Chief Referee in conjunction with the Race Organization
Lapped Riders in UCI Events (UCI Rule 5.1.051): All riders lapped before the final lap must leave the race the next time they cross the finish line. The rider will be given a placing if he or she was lapped more than half way through the race. A rider who is lapped on the final lap shall be stopped at the beginning of the finishing straight line and shall be given a placing on the basis of his or her position. Additionally, Commissaires may pull riders who are behind by more than 80% of the leader's lap time.
Lapped Riders in Non-UCI Events: Lapped riders will finish on the same lap as the leaders. Riders in danger of being lapped must yield to oncoming racers and are not to interfere with their progress or trail behind them.
Pit
There will be one double-sided pit on the course. Only authorized personnel are allowed access to the pit and must have their pit pass displayed at all times. Pit passes will be distributed at registration to each competitor (one per entrant) in UCI events (Elite Men, Elite Women & Junior Men and Junior Women).
Pit Box assigments for UCI events will be done in advance by the PCP. Allocation will be available at check in.
In non-UCI events, only those working the pit will be allowed. The pit official will have the authority to remove anyone that is interfering with the proper functioning of the pit.
We will have bike racks in the Pit. These are for racers that are currently racing, not for storing your equipment all day. Please remove your equipment immediately following your race to make room for others.
Bike washdown for active races will be approximately 50m from the pit with two pressure washers available.
Note: Additional bike washing will be available near registration for racers after their event if the weather dictates it.
Equipment
No flat bars or tires wider than 33mm will be allowed in UCI events (Elite Men, Elite Women). Officials will check tires in the holding pen prior to the start of the UCI races. .
For racers participating in the singlespeed events, they may either ride a true singlespeed bike (one chainring and one freewheeling cog) or may also ziptie a SRAM-equipped drop bar bike into one rideable gear. Zip ties should be left untrimmed and can be obtained at the registration table. No ziptieing of Shimano- or Campagnolo-equipped drop bar bikes. We encourage elite (non-UCI) racers to adhere to the spirit of the discipline.
Anti-Doping
Anti-doping is under the control of USADA and ITA in accordance with UCI regulations. The location of the anti-doping area will be located directly after the line to the right
Medical/First Aid
A medical doctor and registered EMT will be on-site, set up near the planks, across from course from the timing trailer. In addition, 2 Baltimore City Fire Dept. certified EMTs will be on bikes to assist and coordinate any medical action.

The podium area is on a raised platform within EVENT HQ. The top three finishers must report to the stage for awards, podium pictures and potential interviews with the professional announcer.
Riders are advised to have podium bags ready prior to the race (a podium bag typically contains a clean jersey and any essentials to prepare for awards and photos). If riders have support staff, they may assist their rider in the changing/preparing but support staff is not allowed on the podium stage. There will be a “UCI Awards Prep” tent located within the EVENT HQ.

The Waterman’s Triathlons are nestled on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in picturesque Rock Hall, MD. Just 18 miles from Baltimore “as the fish swims” (put your bike rack on a boat!), Rock Hall is one of the friendliest, most laid back towns anywhere…and is full of history. George Washington took the Annapolis Ferry to Rock Hall nearly ten times before heading to Philly on horseback to work out America’s Independence! The time trial swim takes place in Rock Hall Harbor on the Chesapeake Bay, protecting athletes from any serious wind or chop. The bike course is a triathlete’s dream with beautiful ribbons of pavement and wide shoulders throughout most of the rural course. The run course is pancake flat and takes athletes through the quaint nautically themed neighborhoods and side roads of Rock Hall, MD.
This race is worth the trip to Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Check out our race videos HERE and see why athletes consistently come back year after year to race. Don’t miss out, register today.
