Path of the Flood Historic Races

Join us as we lace up to remember, run, and rally! The Path of the Flood Historic Races is not just any race—it's a powerful journey through history, marking the solemn remembrance of the 1889 Johnstown Flood. As we hit the 25th anniversary of the legendary Staple Bend Tunnel, experience an immersive race that guides you along the same path as the historic flood. With options like the full 14-Miler, the swift 8-Miler, or the brisk 5K, runners of all strides can take part in this moving event.

Wind through the resurgent communities of South Fork and Mineral Point, dash through America's first railroad tunnel, and charge towards the finish at the defiant Old Stone Bridge. In partnership with local conservation efforts, every stride supports the Friends of the Trails program, ensuring that the echoes of Johnstown's resilience are heard far and wide. Stand with us – for the cause, for the challenge, for the commemoration. Be part of a living legacy at the Path of the Flood Historic Races.
