Mendon Trail Run
Since 1994, The Rochester Orienteering Club has offered The Mendon Trail Run. The Mendon Trail Run raises funds to support the activities of the Club, which is one of the most active Orienteering Clubs in the US (to learn more, or to attend one of our events, see https://roc.us.orienteering.org/).
The trail run features distances of 10K, 20K, 30K and 50K on the east side of beautiful Mendon Ponds Park.
10 km loop course, entirely off-road, mostly doubletrack with some singletrack. The course will be marked, turns marked at trail junctions, and traffic cones at the one road crossing. The course has many rolling hills. The course for the most part is runnable (not very technical), although there is one short rocky downhill section where the footing can be somewhat tricky. There is an estimated 800-1000 feet of climb per 10k loop.
Aid station for 20k, 30k and 50k runners at midway through the loop, plus one water/Gatorade stop at the S/F of the loop.
