About
WVS Fall Trail 5.5 Mile Run takes place in Eaton Township, Pennsylvania, on October 25, 2026, with the start at 11:00 a.m. It is organized by the Wyoming Valley Striders and run on trails over 5.5 miles, an odd distance that sits between a 5K and a 10K and rewards steady running more than raw speed.
Trail racing changes the math on pace: footing, roots and climbing all slow you down compared with the road, so run by effort and forget about your usual per-mile splits. Trail shoes with real lugs are worth wearing on late-October leaf cover, which hides what is underneath. Two or three months of regular running with a weekly long run on similar terrain will have you ready to enjoy the distance rather than survive it.
