10th Annual Snow Moon Trail Run presented by Bayne's Apple Valley

Prepare for an exhilarating winter challenge at the 10th Annual Snow Moon Trail Run, presented by Bayne's Apple Valley, on Saturday, January 31, 2026, in Midland, MI. This unique event invites hearty trail runners to embrace the cold and darkness with options for 5K, 10K, and 25K distances through the enchanting woods of Midland City Forest. Participants will navigate a 5K loop of wide, non-single track cross-country ski and mountain bike trails, brilliantly illuminated by cool LED lights for a truly memorable night running experience. For those tackling the 10K (two laps) or 25K (five laps), the course offers a spirited run through a chute located at the event's vibrant tent area. There's even a daylight 5K option for those who prefer to hit the trails before dusk.

Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 29F and lows around 15F, and a low 9% chance of precipitation, creating a crisp, invigorating atmosphere. The Snow Moon Trail Run is renowned for its festive spirit, highlighted by a unique aid station featuring a bonfire and enthusiastic volunteers who will cheer you on twice per loop. Post-race, celebrate your accomplishment with two complimentary adult beverages courtesy of Bayne's Apple Valley within the warm, 3,200 square-foot event tent, where the finish line awaits. This USA Track & Field sanctioned event not only promises a challenging and fun experience but also supports the Great Lakes Bay Veterans Coalition with a portion of its proceeds.
