33 Years of Supporting Vermont Adaptive
The Vermont 50 is an annual race held during the last weekend of September at Ascutney Outdoors in  West Windsor, Vermont. All benefits go to Vermont Adaptive Ski and Sports. A wonderful  place where youth and adults with disabilities gain a measure of self confidence and independence by participating in adaptive sports programs and activities year-round.
Since 1993 the Vermont 50 has been a destination for mountain bikers and ultra runners to enjoy a challenging and scenic Vermont landscape course that is like no other.  There is something for everyone. We offer the Vermont 50 mile Mountain Bike Race, Womens 2-person Bike Relay, Over 60 2-person Bike Relay,  50 mile Ultra Run,  50K Endurance Run, 2-3 Person 50 mile Run Team Relay and the Kids Fun Runs and Bike Rides.
NOTE-This race does NOT allow E-Bikes.
We are a family friendly event offering lots of kid centered activities such as the Hay Bale Treasure Hunt, The Fun Runs and Rides, clowns, face painting and more! Join us and find out why the Vermont 50 has become so popular. (Subject to change as COVID-19 rules and regulations apply.)
Spots fill-up quickly so early registration is a must!

About This Sport

Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.

Mountain biking takes place on singletrack and natural terrain where reading the trail matters as much as fitness — cornering, braking, and instinct on dirt are skills that only come from time in the saddle.

Events range from beginner-friendly cross-country races to technical enduros, and the trail community is one of the most welcoming in endurance sport.

Mountain Bike

XC races, enduros, and fat bike events across U.S. trails. Technical, physical, and completely different from anything on pavement.
