The 14th Annual Burning River Endurance Runs & Relay is an exciting 100 and 50 mile solo run and 100 mile relay held in Northeast Ohio. The race travels through several of the region’s most scenic areas, including the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and the Summit Metro Parks.

The out and back course begins at HiHo Brewing Co. in Cuyahoga Falls. The 100 mile run and relay follow the scenic Cuyahoga River Valley Corridor to the halfway point at Silver Springs Park before turning around and heading back to Downtown Cuyahoga Falls. The Front 50 mile distance option begins at HiHo and finishes at Silver Springs Park located in Stow, Ohio. The Back 50 mile race begins at Silver Springs and finishes in Downtown Cuyahoga Falls.
