TWO WEEKS of options: June 7- 20, 2020
Black Rock Retreat invites you to participate in our annual fundraising event. This year’s run features three different registration options.
1. You can participate virtually by running in your own neighborhood. We’d love to see you at camp but we understand that may not be possible right now.
2. You and your group (10 people or less) can reserve a time slot to come run the rugged 5K/10K course on our property.
3. If you’re not up for a rugged trail you can still reserve a time slot for your group. Just choose the casual trail option during registration and come explore any of our unpaved trails. This option allows you to choose your own challenge.

Runners and Walkers Welcome
Step 1: Choose your challenge:

You can still run with your friends! If the people in your group are not in your household just make sure you stay 6 feet apart on the trail.

ALL confirmed finishers will receive this year’s unique Run the Rock t-shirt.

Details (2020)

Run AT the Rock:
- On-Site Scheduled Options: You can reserve a time slot for you and up to 9 of your closest friends (or family) to come and run/walk the trails on our beautiful property. You’ll check-in and out with our staff on property. After completing your registration, you will receive an email with a special link to reserve your preferred time slot.
- The Rugged Trail: Runners who are looking for an above-average challenge will find the grounds of Black Rock Retreat to be surprisingly rugged. The 5K loop will cover the over 100 acres of Black Rock Retreat property including a steep incline from the Octoraro creek. The total run has over 600 ft of elevation change. This year’s 10K runners will need 2x’s the stamina to complete 2x’s the distance. Are you ready for the challenge? (10K runners will complete the 5K loop twice.)
- The Casual Trail: Participants interested in a less rugged challenge will have the opportunity to walk or jog any of Black Rock’s unpaved trails – enjoy a leisurely stroll or jog to the lake and back or any other distance of your choice.
Virtual 5K or 10K Run/Walk:
- If you can’t make it to our property, you can still “run with us” in our first-ever virtual 5k/10k challenge.
- You’ll still receive a t-shirt after completion, but you won’t need to leave your neighborhood.
- After you finish your challenge, send us either a screenshot from your activity app or a selfie from your run/walk, then we’ll mail you your t-shirt.
