Green Mile Loop Challenge 2019
When: Saturday, September 28, 2019
Time: 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Where: Roosevelt Shelter in North Park (Directions to shelter and Course Map)
What: We aim to promote the healthful and competitive aspects of trail running while making this event highly accessible (e.g. free of charge, modest trail course for any level trail runner)
Event Parameters: Within the allotted timeframe (8 a.m. to 2 p.m.) how many loops of the almost 2-mile green trail can you do? (1 loop or 20? It's all good!) With each loop you complete, a raffle ticket is given to you. The more loops, the more tickets, the more chances to win some cool swag! We are running in the opposite direction this year.
