The Mon/Yough Trail Council’s 11^th annual spring fundraiser – the ‘Boston Trail ½ Marathon and 5K Run/Walk’ – is scheduled for Saturday, April 12, 2025, rain or shine. Start and finish is at the Boston Access of the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) in Elizabeth Township. Proceeds from the event support the MYTC – an all-volunteer, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization – and their efforts to maintain a 15-mile section of the GAP in Allegheny County. The course is a flat, crushed limestone surface that parallels the picturesque Youghiogheny River.

The ½ Marathon is USATF certified and led by members of the MarathonPacing.com team. Medals are awarded to the top three overall and age group finishers, men and women. An open division will award medals to the top three finishers and includes those who identify as nonbinary or prefer not to select a gender. Finisher medals are given to all participants who complete the ½ Marathon. Timing services are provided by Runners High, and results are posted to their website in real time.

All participants MUST be registered by Midnight, March 23, to receive early bird pricing and be guaranteed an event t-shirt. Participants in the ½ Marathon receive a long-sleeved, technical fiber shirt; 5K participants receive a short-sleeved, cotton shirt. Registrations will continue to be accepted online only through Midnight, April 10. Visit the MYTC website https://thebostontrail.com/ for more information or to register.
