About the Ignite Trail Marathon
The Ignite Trail Marathon is a mid-December trail race at Chain O'Lakes State Park in Albion, Indiana. The course is a 13.1-mile loop from the Sand Lake Beach area, run twice for the marathon and once for the half marathon, mostly on trail with one short road section and about 1,000 feet of climbing per loop. It was the RRCA Indiana State Championship marathon in 2024. The Ignite Trail Series, a nonprofit run by ultra runners, organizes the race and puts its proceeds back into the park.
