The Blue Blaze Festival is more than a run. Join us for the Buckeye Trail (BT) Blue Blaze Festival to celebrate the diversity of the BT. Trails in the Wayne National Forest, as part of the New Straitsville section of the BT are mostly single-track trail, there are many types of trail users. The Blue Blaze Festival will be highlighting the BT as a outdoor destination for running, hiking and backpacking.
Both the Buckeye Trail Run for Blue Blazes half and full marathon races will be on an out and back course, which will include new sections of the Buckeye Trail. The course goes through hilly and challenging sections of the Wayne National Forest.
After the race participants can enjoy food prepared by the BTA Chuckwagon cooks. This is the same chuckwagon used by the BTA Trail Maintenance volunteers who work from early spring to late fall building and maintaining the Buckeye Trail throughout the state of Ohio.
Run for Blue Blazes is organized by the Buckeye Trail Association (BTA) and supports the work of the Buckeye Trail. The BTA is a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization dedicated to building, maintaining, protecting and promoting use of Ohio’s longest scenic hiking trail for the health and fitness of our citizens, communities and partners.
