  The Brandon Tolson Foundation presents "Miles of Smiles 5K or Stroll for Joel 1M" on Saturday, May 9, 2026 at Cedar Lane Park in Bel Air, MD. Race start time is 9:00 am.

  Come on out for a 5K Run/1Mile Stroll in memory of Joel

  In life, Joel’s hilarious antics brought endless laughter and countless smiles. What better way to honor his memory than sharing this joy with others as you run, walk, or stroll for Joel?

  In October 2018, at just 19 years old, Joel was tragically killed in a car accident. Like so many families who have experienced the sudden loss of a child, we were overwhelmed with shock and grief. During that unimaginably difficult time, the Brandon Tolson Foundation stepped in to provide support.

  Let’s come together to raise funds in Joel’s honor, ensuring the Brandon Tolson Foundation can continue providing vital emotional support and financial relief to families navigating life after the devastating loss of a child. With your help, we can offer grieving families the hope, healing, and resources they need during their darkest moments.

  Thank you for honoring Joel’s memory through your generous support.

  ~Heather and Andy Matricciani

  Escape the summer city heat and head for the mountains! Join us at Rocky Gap State Park in Flintstone, MD for the 22nd annual Rocky Gap Off-Road Triathlon, Duathlon, and Relay.

  The triathlon race course starts with a two lap swim in warm clear waters of a mountain lake and the duathlon starts with a 2.7 mile semi-technical trail run. After the first segment, all racers head out to complete two laps of a mountain bike course that includes twisty lakeside singletrack, wide fire roads, smooth grassy sections, and a few rock gardens. Once completing the mountain bike course, racers transition to a 5.5 mile run that has rooty trails, smooth open flats, and a few ups and downs (of course!). All in all, this course is super fun and has challenged thousands of newbies and seasoned vets over the years!

  Welcome to Adventure Racing! The Greenhorn AR, now in our 11th edition, was created to offer competitors a gateway into the sport of adventure racing. This 4 hour sprint adventure race was designed with the beginner in mind, but fun for everyone no matter the skill or experience level! While there is significant challenge built in, this event is fun and highly achievable for the novice racer. The navigation is straight forward and the maps that we provide are excellent. The mountain biking takes racers over gravel roads, some pavement, and semi-technical singletrack trails. Finally, the paddling takes place on a clear lake.

  Race Date: Saturday September 12, 2026

  Location: Rocky Gap State Park, Flintstone, MD

  Start Time: 11:00am

  Total Distance/Time: Roughly 15 miles, 4 hours time limit

  Disciplines: Trekking (~3 to 6 miles), paddling (~2 mile), mountain biking (~8 to 10 miles), navigation (beginner)

  Teams: Soloists and teams of two, three, or four (male, female, or co-ed). Team members travel together the entire race.

  It’s no secret that we adore Rocky Gap State Park and it absolutely has a special place in our hearts and the hearts of thousands of EX2 racers. We’ve been hosting races in the park since 2004, and three years we introduced this brand new ultra distance trail running event. We are thrilled to bring back the Rocky Gap 25K, 50K, and Relay Trail Running Race for year four! We hope you join us for an awesome adventure in the mountains of western Maryland.

  Race Date: Sunday October 11, 2026

  Start Time: 8:30am (50K), 9:00am (25K)

  Location: Rocky Gap State Park in Flintstone, MD

  Course Length: 25K (~16ish miles) and 50K (~32ish miles)

  Course Format: 3 different loops. 25K does each loop once, while the 50K does each loop twice

  Entry types: Solo runners and relay teams of 2 or 3 in both the 25K and 50K

  The race highlights three different beautiful loops in the park that vary in length between 4.4 miles and 6.5 miles. We are calling these loops simply Loop A, Loop B, and Loop C. The 25K race does each loop once in order (A, B, C) with a total elevation change of about 1,300 feet. The 50K race does each loop twice in order (A, B, C…then A, B, C again) with a total elevation change of about 2,600 feet.

  Loop A – Rocky Trail

  Loop A is 6.5 miles with 500+ feet of elevation change and some moderate singletrack sections. The route follows the Lakeside Loop Trail for approximately 1.4 miles until it takes a left turn up a trail that we affectionately call Evitt’s Revenge (it’s steep). After a really fantastic .2 mile climb, the route takes a right onto Rocky Trail where it continues to climb until about mile 2.7. After topping out, the route heads downhill via the Setters Path trail and the Hickory Loop in the campground to the Lakeside Loop Trail. The route then follows the Lakeside Loop around the lake back to the staging area.

  Loop B – Canyon Overlook

  Loop B is 4.4 miles with about 500 feet of elevation change and highlights some lesser known singletrack in the park. The route follows the Lakeside Loop Trail for approximately 1 mile until it reaches the dam road and then continues straight across the road and up a steep (but short) section of trail to the ridge above the gorge. The route then traverses above the gorge to the left to the Canyon Overlook Trail and then returns back to the dam road to Old Hancock Road. The route then takes a right on Old Hancock Road (doubletrack) and then a left on an awesome 1.5 mile trail that leads back to Lake View Drive. The route then follows the Lake View Drive back to the staging area.

  Loop C – Lakeside Loop

  Loop C is 5.2 with about 250 feet of elevation change and follows the complete Lakeside Loop Trail. The route is amazingly beautiful with water views most of the way around.

  In terms of anticipated difficultly, Loop A is the hardest followed by Loop B. Loop C is the easiest of the three loops since it is generally flat around the lake.

  Course maps, elevation profiles, etc. are on the race website.
