RUNNING

Running plays an integral part of the way of life in the Mad River Valley. Running events include the Mad Marathon, Mad Half & Relays, the Mad Dash and the Mad Mile.

The Mad Marathon, Mad Half and Relays began in 2011 in the gorgeous Mad River Valley, located in Central Vermont. You will be running through this extraordinary rural community on back and dirt roads, with breathtaking views of the Green Mountains, challenging rollin farmlands with tough climbs and descents, quaint villages, historic barns, covered bridges and fields of our famous Vermont cows!

The Mad River Valley is the winter home of Sugarbush and Mad River Glen ski areas, and the summer offers a host of sport opportunities in golf, biking, kayaking, canoeing, fly fishing and of course, running in a pristine natural setting.
