Brookfield Classic

The Brookfield Classic is located in beautiful Brookfield New York, deep in the woods of the Charles E Baker State Forest. Participants will complete one of three races, the 5k, 15k or the 50k Ultra Marathon.

Race Details: 5k
New for 2024 is our scenic 5k trail run around Woodland Pond. New to trail running or enjoy the 5k distance, this is the event for you.

Race Details: 15k
This race traverses a challenging 15k loop through a mix of truck trails and horse trails. This race is family friendly and can be walked or ran. Think of it as a day hike or a competitive run, you choose.

Race Details: 50k Ultra Marathon
This race traverses 50k through truck and horse trails covering 4,600+ feet of vertical gain. The course is broken into 3 loops allowing participants to refuel each lap or in the event they no longer choose to go on, are able to safely quit. At the end of each loop you must ensure a race volunteer has marked you down for completing your loop.

This race has a 9 hour cut off.

Trail Conditions
These vary but we recommend trail running shoes or hiking boots (for walkers). A change of shoes and socks is not a bad idea.

This race is designed to be fun, build community, and test your individual limits. At the end of the day, the sense of accomplishment you get from crossing the finish line is like no other. This being the first annual Brookfield Classic, you will be able to set an individual benchmark to compare to for future performances. There are many people in this world with unfortunate circumstances unable to participate in an event like this. If you are lucky enough to have a healthy body, and a good life, complete this race for no other reason than “because you can”.

No matter if your goal is to casually hike the 15k or attempt to win the Ultra Marathon, you will be a better person at the end.
