Headwaters Trail Runs is a cupless event; runners will need to carry a means to drink at the aid stations. The event offers a hearty, organic post‑race meal, a commemorative race t‑shirt, and a unique finisher’s medal. Courses include scenic, mountainous loop routes on single‑track trails and dirt forest roads, with fully‑stocked aid stations along the way.
