Videos from the 2021 Cat's Tail Trail Marathon
The 7th running of the Cat's Tail Trail Marathon has concluded but memories and stories will live on. This is one of the more epic marathons out there. It takes place in the heart of the Catskill Mountains in New York State and boasts over 7,000 feet of elevation gain on some gnarly terrain.
Congratulations to all of the runners and thank you to all of the volunteers, who without, races like these wouldn’t be possible. We are already looking forward to next years event! Here is a little footage from the day.

"When I downloaded my GPS data from Catstail this year, the first “top result” listed was 400 meters in 71 seconds, my second best 400 on Strava. That was how we started the race. I don’t wear my watch for everything, but Catstail is a technical trail marathon with 7k of climb that takes 4.5 hours. Yes, the first 400m is downhill on a road, but that still doesn’t really make 4:44 pace a good idea. To put this in perspective, my mile PR is 4:34. This was a new level of “Coming in hot.”
