⏵ Course guide · Team relay, Lee NH
The Great Pumpkin Trail Relay is a 10K, 2-person team relay at Coyote Spring Farm in Lee, New Hampshire, organized by Six03 Endurance & Marathon Sports. Each partner runs a 1.5 mile loop twice, passing off a small pumpkin, your bib for the day, at each exchange. It is a light, social event rather than a serious race. The official event page has not been updated in a while, so the next date is worth confirming directly with Six03 before you plan around it.
These facts come from the official Six03 Endurance event page, which has not been meaningfully updated recently. Confirm the next running, entry price, and start time directly with Six03 before you sign up.
Teams of two take turns on a 1.5 mile trail loop at Coyote Spring Farm. Runner one carries the pumpkin out and back, hands it to runner two, and the pattern repeats until each partner has run the loop twice, about 5K each, for a combined 10K.
There is no traditional race bib here. The small pumpkin supplied at the start is your team's bib, and passing it between partners at each exchange is the whole point of the format. It is built for a mixed-ability pair, since the shorter 1.5 mile legs make the relay approachable for a less experienced runner while still giving a stronger runner a chance to push.
⏵ Building toward something bigger?

It is a 10K, 2-person relay at Coyote Spring Farm in Lee, New Hampshire, built as a light, social team event rather than a serious race. Each team of two covers the full 10K together, with no bibs. Instead, the small pumpkin you get at the start is your bib for the day.
Each partner runs a 1.5 mile loop carrying the pumpkin, then hands it off to their teammate. Each of you runs the loop twice, for about 5K per person, and a combined 10K for the team. There is no formal bib, just the pumpkin changing hands at each exchange.
That is genuinely unclear right now. The official page has not been meaningfully updated in some time, it still displays an October 27, 2024 date and links results from 2022, and no 2026 or later date has been posted. Rather than guess, the honest answer is to confirm directly with Six03 Endurance before you plan around this one. Historically it has run in late October.
No. This is built as a team and social event, a short 1.5 mile loop run twice per person, on farm trails. It is a good fit for a mixed-experience pair, one more competitive runner and one newer runner, since the format is about splitting the work and having fun with the pumpkin handoff, not chasing a fast time.
