The heart of The Long Run - Fall Back is its engaging "give-or-take 5-mile loop" course, winding through Jacobsburg State Park. Runners will experience a varied terrain of both flowing single track and fast gravel trails, with each loop featuring approximately 450 feet of elevation change. What truly sets this edition apart is its reverse direction; unlike the Spring Forward race, Fall Back tackles the course clockwise, offering a fresh perspective even for seasoned participants. The start and finish are conveniently located at the Equestrian Parking Lot near the Sobers Run trailhead, creating a central hub for runners and spectators alike.

The Long Run - Fall Back champions a self-supported ethos, requiring runners to bring their own hydration for this cupless event. However, ample coolers of water will be available at the start/finish area for refills, and 3-hour and 6-hour participants are welcome to set up personal aid bins or buckets (under 30 gallons) in this accessible zone. Beyond the course, The Running Kind distinguishes itself through its commitment to sustainability, making this a "zero-carbon" event by offsetting emissions and collecting donations for the Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center. All finishers earn a distinctive race pin, while the top three male, female, and non-binary athletes receive sustainable medals, celebrating both effort and environmental responsibility in this runner, hiker, and walker-friendly event.
