Cup-Free Racing!

Nothing kills the vibe of running through the forest like coming up on an aid station littered with discarded single-use cups. Sure, our volunteers would clean up afterwards, but in an effort to reduce our impact on the natural areas we love, we are going cup-free!

There will not be paper cups at aid stations or at the start/finish. If you expect needing hydration on-course, you are responsible for bringing your own cup/bottle/bladder. We will have water dispensers at aid stations to top-off.

Going cup-free is a significant step to bringing our event closer to zero-waste and being better stewards of our public lands.

Check out this resource for why and how to go cup-free.

Pro-Tip: Event sponsor, Movin’ Shoes, has loads of hydration options!

Goodies

SWAG will be run gloves from Boco Gear with custom TRAIL branding. Swag is opt-in for an additional $15 and while supplies last.

After Party

Our celebration of Fall, trails, and Indian Lake doesn’t end at the finish line; we are looking forward to the return of our post-race party!

The Currach Irish Trio will once again be headlining while we enjoy food, beverage, and the raffle.
