Come enjoy the newly opened sections of Dawkins Rail Trail with a foot race, or two. Composed of two Half Marathon Events one starting at 8:00 a.m. on race day and the other starting on 10:00 a.m. each having distinctive unique finisher medals which join to make a full marathon complete. The race is being moved this year to the Royalton, Kentucky and will include parts of the newly opened second section of the Dawkins Line. It will include the Gun Creek Tunnel, which is 662 feet long and many trestles and bridges. This is a must run event as it highlights the potential of the rail trail project and the community of Royalton.
All proceeds from this event are used to fund the Ritecare speech and language therapy program at the Highlands Autism Center and to support the Royalton Trail Town Committee in their quest to revitalize their community around adventure tourism.
