Little River Trail Run 2012

Registration is filling up fast for the 7th Annual Trail Run to be held Saturday, January 14, 2012. The run features a 10 mile as well as a 7k course again this year. The 10 mile course usually runs the Ridge Trail, North River Loop and most of the single-track mountain bike trails. The 7k course follows the North River Loop trail, portions of the South River Loop trail and a section of the beginners mountain bike trail.

Since parking for large events can be a challenge at the park, participants are encouraged to carpool. A raffle will be held for vehicles that come with four or more occupants.

The Trailheads, who organize the event, will again be donating a portion of the proceeds to the park. More information can be found on the Trailheads website:  http://www.trailheads.org/lrtr/index.html.

Last year saw a challenging course after a snow/ice storm covered the trails and brought down a number of trees. The year before it was really, really cold. What's in store for this year? The forecast looks like temperatures in the upper 40's for race day. Keep your fingers crossed!
