Each participant receives a native tree courtesy of Evergreen Nursery and post-race snacks, adding a unique touch to your achievement. Chip-timed results ensure accurate tracking, and individual awards celebrate top finishers. Two water stations will be available on the 5k route, and three on the 10k route, to keep you hydrated.

With typical race day conditions seeing highs around 72°F and lows around 52°F, and only a 15% chance of precipitation, June 13, 2026, promises ideal weather for a memorable trail adventure. The race kicks off at 8:00 AM, with packet pickup and registration conveniently located at the Collins Learning Center within the preserve.
