Embark on an unforgettable overnight trail running adventure at Ragnar Trail Richmond, set for April 24, 2026, at the stunning Pocahontas State Park in Chesterfield, Virginia. This captivating 120-mile team relay challenges teams of 8 (or 4 for ultra teams) to conquer three distinct loops through lush forests and rugged terrain. Runners will navigate unpaved paths, including twisty single-track and double-track sections, featuring roots and rocks, while enjoying picturesque views of Beaver Lake and Swift Creek Lake. The course, with a total elevation gain of approximately 755 feet, offers continuous rolling hills and some challenging inclines across its Green (4.4 miles), Yellow (5 miles), and Red (5.7 miles) loops, with the Red Loop being particularly technical.

What makes Ragnar Trail Richmond truly unique is the immersive 24-hour experience. As day turns to night, runners continue beneath a canopy of stars, creating lasting memories with teammates. The heart of the event is Ragnar Village, your home away from home, where teams camp, enjoy bonfires, s'mores, music, and a vibrant atmosphere. This "summer camp for grownups" fosters incredible camaraderie and team spirit, welcoming runners of all abilities to conquer the trails. Aid stations in the village provide water, food, and amenities, along with a recovery zone. Typical race day conditions in late April offer pleasant temperatures, with highs around 73°F and lows around 50°F, and a modest 16% chance of precipitation.
