Summary

Late summer scenic trail race thru beautiful Mill Creek Park - absolutely stunning! Waterfalls, boulders, and mostly single track trail. Pick your distance, 1 loop or 2 on a well marked course with 2 full aid stations and hot lunch at the finish.

Youngstown Ultra Trail Classic Review

Good communication, easy directions, and ample free parking near the start/finish. 
Well marked mostly single track trail- the course changed this year eliminating the majority of road! Fairly technical and lots of opportunity to climb but also some very runable trails.
Absolutely stunning views along the river with waterfalls, a mill, wooden bridges, and boulders.
Choose your distance, 1 loop or 2 for a 25K / 50K.
Full aid station access x2 per loop and hot lunch / adult beverages at the finish!
Nice swag includes LS tech shirt and visor for all athletes 
Overall awards are sock monkeys!
