What is the TAM Trek?
The TAM Trek is a trail race or fun run to raise funds for the Trail Around Middlebury.  This trail, a footpath over 18 miles long, encircles the village of Middlebury and links several hundred acres of town land, conserved properties, schools, and other local landmarks.
Participation in the 18-mile event is capped at 100 runners so sign up soon to secure your bib! All distances start and finish at Wright Park in Middlebury, Vermont. The 6-mile course is entirely on single-track trail through Wright Park and the Gorge Loop (trail maps available at www.maltvt.org), with around 400 feet of elevation gain and several slightly technical sections.
The 18-mile course starts at Wright Park and follows the entire 18-mile TAM route around Middlebury, ending at Wright Park. This challenging loop gains and loses over 1,000 feet in elevation over single- and double-track with several technical sections and some short road sections to connect between trails. There will not be traffic control at road crossings, so runners must use caution when traversing road sections and are encouraged to run against traffic or on sidewalks where available (pavement sections total less than 3 miles). This route includes all of the best aspects of trail running in Vermont: from sweeping vistas of the Champlain Valley and Green Mountains to broad fields with iconic Vermont farmland and stretches of evergreen and hardwood forests. The course will be very well-marked and easy to follow, with several aid stations stocked with [aid station offerings.]

Fees:
18-miler starts at 8am. ($40/person*)
6-miler starts at 10am ($40/person*)
2-mile fun run/ 3 mile hike starts at 10am (Recommended donation of $30/person*).
*Groups of 6 can register for $120.
Kids under 13 are free for all events.

Registration: You can register on Active.com here. Pre-register until September 17. After early registration, entry price will increase to $45 and $140 for groups. Race day registration will be available. Printed forms can be mailed in, dropped off at the office, or brought to the event itself.

Eliza, MiniBury Founder

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
