The Ragnar Trail Vermont team race returned to Ascutney Outdoors

Last weekend saw the return of the Ragnar Trail Vermont team race to Ascutney Outdoors, where teams of four to eight runners navigate Mt. Ascutney’s Cloud Climber Trail over the course of a day and a half — each individual runner takes turns completing three progressively more difficult loops that add up to a total of 118 team miles. Teams pitch camp in Ragnar Village, where spectators and runners alike can enjoy bonfires, music, yoga, prize games, and food from the Brownsville Butcher & Pantry.
