Womp Romp is back again! We have the 10 mile one-loop race and the 50k three-loop race again this year. The loop is a nice mixture of single track, wide trails and some pavement. perfect for first time and seasoned trail runners. Three aid stations once again with lots of goodies and healthy options. All paces welcome and encouraged. A generous 9 hour cut off for the 50k and 10 Miler.
Bring Food
Once again we are asking for runners to bring food or beverage to help stock our aid stations. We had great participation last year and donated the extra food to Safe Harbor, a great resource that focuses on reducing underage substance use and addiction.
Why are we doing this
We have been running in Wompatuck State Park for years Often during runs we would say “someone should put on a race.” Instead of waiting for someone, we decided to do it. Wompatuck is an amazing park with great trails and we want more people to know about it so they can enjoy it. All profits will be donated to our charity partners. Current partners: Friends of Wompatuck, Free to Run, and Footprints.
About Wompatuck
Wompatuck State Park is located in Hingham, MA – just 35 minutes from downtown Boston. Rich in history, this land was originally the property of Indian chief Josiah Wompatuck who deeded the land to English Settlers in 1665. During WWII and the Korean War, it served as an ammunitions depot for the U.S. military. Today, it is a 3,526 acre park that extends from Hingham into the neighboring towns of Cohasset, Scituate, and Norwell.
About Friends of Wompatuck
The Friends of Wompatuck State Park (FOW), an all volunteer, not for profit group, was incorporated in early 2006 for the purpose of educating the public about the park’s uses and historical value, as well as helping the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation preserve, maintain, and enhance the assets, history, and other features within the park.
