The Trail Animals Running Club played host to the ninth running of the TARCkey Trot 6-Hour Ultra on Saturday, Nov. 15, 2025, at Wright-Locke Farm in Winchester, Mass. A field of 106 runners had six hours to complete as many 3.5-mile loops as they wanted on the trails of the farm and neighboring Whipple Hill. The following are a small sample of photos from the day by MassUltra Editor Chris Wristen. A full gallery can be viewed on the MassUltra Flickr page.
