Pebble Hill Plantation is a 501(c)3 not for profit organization dedicated to preserving, promoting, and presenting cultural education in the areas of art, antiques, furnishings, history, and human interest. Your participation in the Quail Trail 5K supports the Pebble Hill Preservation Fund, which helps offset the ongoing maintenance and historic preservation of the museum’s main house and expansive 3,000-acre grounds.

Quail Trail 5K is a hilly 5,000-meter cross country course throughout historic Pebble Hill Plantation. Running surfaces include pea gravel, grass, dirt, red clay, and asphalt. This course is certified by USA Track & Field, number GA23040WC.

Trophies to first male and female in the Open and Master’s (40+) division. Awards to top 3 finishers in the following age groups: 19 and under; 20-29; 30-39; 40-49; 50-59; 60-69; and 70+. All participants receive a t-shirt.

The Boston Mini Marathon and 5K races are certified and professionally timed. They start in downtown Boston, wind through our farm land community and out into the fresh October country air. The entire route is paved, lined with refreshment stands every 2.5 miles and porta-potties at miles 2, 5, 7, and 11. The rolling hills are not extreme, though the final stretch can be a nice uphill challenge. At the finish line are healthy eats and drinks for each participant designed to speed your recovery. After that, roam around the downtown area and enjoy the festival of food, drinks and family-style southern hospitality!
