The 20th Annual Perseverance Trail Run is back in Cumberland on October 29th, 2023! In 2022 we raised over $31,000!!
BIG NEWS! There is a generous forest fairy who has stepped forward to match up to $25,000 in additional racer and community donations for the 2023 Perseverance Trail Run! Give a little or give a lot - every dollar raised up to $25,000 will be matched in support of the land protection and stewardship work of the Cumberland Community Forest Society!
Once again, we are raising funds for the Cumberland Community Forest Society and we would like to encourage you to make a small (or big!) donation to the CCFS during your registration. Team up with your friends and coworkers - there are prizes for top individual and team fundraisers!
Your donations DO make a difference and many hectares of forest land have been purchased and protected by the CCFS, to date. With your help, the CCFS will be able to protect more of the Cumberland Forest for all to enjoy! Thank you in advance for your support.
RACE DETAILS:
Cumberland is known for its world-class trail network and the fall is a beautiful time to enjoy it. Be prepared for pristine single track, winding cross-country trails and twisting forest paths. You can be sure there will be a few ups and downs again in this year's race ;) Choose from the 3K X-Country Romp or the 12K Mountain Run and help to protect these beautiful Cumberland trails!

3K X-Country Romp
Start Time - 11:00am
This fun event will take you through lightly undulating wooded sections of the Cumberland Community Forest Trails. There are a few ups and downs, twists and turns and maybe even a little water. If you like fresh air and want to sample cross country running, then this course is for you. All ages welcome and this course is perfect for the little ones. However, parents/guardians are responsible for the safety of their children and asked to accompany small children on the course.
12K Mountain Run
Start Time - 11:01am
The 12K course features some of the most breathtaking running trails imaginable. It is a classic mountain trail course, so expect to run up and down plenty of hills, through soft forest paths and technical single-track mountain bike trails, over bridges and logs, through water and along creeks in the Cumberland Community Forest. Any children under 14 years MUST be accompanied by a registered adult racer on the 12K mountain course.
