The Dark Side 8 Hour Ultra Clarksburg, MD   Mar 1, 2025

Welcome to the Dark Side! As spring is officially just around the corner, the annual Dark Side 8 Hour Ultra is a timed event to get you back out on the trails in search of warmer weather. This eight-hour event explores the beautiful and gentle trails of Little Bennett Park in Montgomery County MD. The 6 mile loop starts at the Little Bennett campground and will be primarily run on single track trails. Run 1 lap or many! The park is a local trail running favorite and we are genuinely excited to share it with you.

The race will again start at the Little Bennett Campground Pavilion at 8:00am and will conclude at 4 pm.

The first rate aid station will have water, hydration options and ultra fair food (potatoes, broth, bacon, French toast sticks, etc – the muffins are always a favorite!). A post meal of veggie and beef chili will again be available.
