Barn To Run to Visit Powisset Farm in Dover

Sun Multisport Events has announced that the Barn to Run Trail Race Series, a collection of farm-based trail races around New England, will visit Powisset Farm on October 29, 2018 for the Powisset Farm Trail Race. This is the third and final race in the trail series. Each event in the series is designed to connect runners to scenic trails and local farms while offering a terrific race experience to participants and spectators.

“Athletes and running enthusiasts are always looking for new places to run, so we set out to create a race series that would enable participants to enjoy the scenery and historic nature of some of the area’s most beautiful farms,” said Mark Walter, Owner, Sun Multisport Events. “The pastures of Powisset Farm, the trails of Noanet Woodlands and view of Boston from Noanet Peak offers runners a unique event experience at a time of the year when the colors of fall foliage are at its peak”

Each event in the Barn to Run series features multiple race distances to choose from, includes running past farm fields and through forest trails, and provides an opportunity to learn about and support farm programs and initiatives. The Powisset Farm trail run offers 1.5, 3.1, 5.6 and 8.3 miles race options that will take runners on the trails on the farm, through Noanet Woodlands and an ascent of Noanet Peak that offers a terrific view of Boston. Post-race festivities include beer courtesy of the ZeLUS Beer Company, activities for kids, barnyard visits, a food truck, awards, giveaways and more.

Each host property is managed by the Trustees of the Reservations, a non-profit land conservation and historic preservation organization dedicated to preserving natural and historical places in Massachusetts, and a portion of the proceeds from each event will go to the Trustees.
