Embark on a captivating trail running adventure at the Womp Romp, held on October 24, 2026, in the historic Wompatuck State Park in Hingham, MA. Choose your challenge with either the classic 10-mile single loop or test your endurance with the 50K, comprising three dynamic loops plus an additional mile. This event, known for selling out quickly, offers a welcoming atmosphere for both first-time trail runners and seasoned ultrarunners alike. Experience typical race day conditions with comfortable highs around 60F and lows of 42F, accompanied by a modest 17% chance of precipitation.

The Womp Romp course weaves through Wompatuck State Park, a sprawling 3,526-acre expanse rich in history. Runners will navigate a scenic blend of single track, wider trails, some pavement (approximately two miles per 10-mile loop), and rail trails, with mud often adding to the authentic trail experience. The 50K distance features approximately 2,000 feet of elevation gain, presenting a hilly yet runnable challenge across varied surfaces, including some rocks, roots, and ruts. The looped format ensures 50K participants pass the South Field start/finish area multiple times, allowing access to drop bags or personal vehicles.

Three well-stocked aid stations per loop will keep you fueled with water, sports drinks, candy, chips, pickles, fruit, broth, and more. Reflecting its strong community spirit and "We Get To Do This!" mindset, the Womp Romp encourages runners to contribute to the aid station offerings, creating a truly communal and supportive environment. This cupless race prioritizes sustainability, so remember to bring your own hydration vessel. Beyond the trails, the Womp Romp stands out for its philanthropic mission, donating all surplus funds to esteemed charity partners including Friends of Wompatuck, Free to Run, and Footprints. With a generous nine-hour cutoff for the 50K, this race is designed for personal challenge and shared camaraderie on the beautiful Hingham trails.
