About The Double Trouble 15K & 30K Trail Runs
The Double Trouble 15K & 30K Trail Runs is a Running race in Elverson, Pennsylvania consisting of a 15K Trail Run and 30K Trail Run.
The Double Trouble eases one's mind due to you only having 3 simple choices to make concerning it; do 1 loop of it and finish in the 15k, do 2 loops of it and finish in the 30k or be a TOTAL WUSSY and not enter it at all. THAT'S IT!!!
The DT uses a beautiful 15k loop past 2 lakes, with everyone starting together. Runners decide mid-race whether to do 1 loop or 2. Trained for the 30k but its 112 degrees in the shade that day, finish in the 15k instead. Stayed home for once the night before a race and soberly discover that you are really runningKeep Reading strong after 15k, do another loop. There's a full set of awards in both! You'll declare a distance beforehand but you are no more committed to that decision than Bernie Sanders is committed to wearing a necktie
to state dinners, if elected.
Afterwards, relax in the shade, eat hot/cold food, hose off in the Pretzel City official shower and watch others suffer as they finish or decide to go on. We also have modern potties, a playground at the start/finish, parking galore, boat rentals & a pool nearby, picnic tables & LOTS of things that make this a wonderful run for you & a great place for your peeps to hang till you finish or die; whichever occurs first. This race draws 300-400 people annually for a great workout, a beautiful setting and a chance to run an 85% shaded trail; one of the FEW instances where it is bearable to do a long run at the peak of the summer.
