Buffalo Trace Trail Race

Join us for the Buffalo Trace Trail Race at the Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve on Sunday, February 28, 2021!

Due to COVID19, the race will look a little different than normal. Runners will start in 25 person waves. You will receive more specific details as race day approaches and we are more sure about what restrictions will be in place. Registration will be a waitlist and we will NOT charge your card until mid-February. ABSOLUTELY NO RACE DAY REGISTRATION IN 2021.

The Buffalo Trace Trail Race is a Second Wind Running Club race and is part of the Second Wind Running Club race circuit.
