Terrapin Mountain 50K & Half Marathon Big Island, VA   Mar 21, 2026

The Terrapin Mountain 50k and Half Marathon is an established spring favorite for many runners. Although only the 50k is part of the Beast Series and Lynchburg Ultra Series (LUS), the half-marathon gives you a taste of what the longer version offers. Both races will introduce you to the challenging and beautiful trails around Terrapin Mtn, White Oak Ridge, Goff Mtn, and Hunting Creek.

Come and join us for a wonderful event and see the Blue Ridge Mountains on the cusp of spring.

Both races are part of the TrailRunner Magazine Trophy Series.

Terrapin Mountain 50k is event #2 in the Beast Series & LUS.
