Description

Run Caney is back again!  This will be a 6 mile and 12 mile loop run around beautiful Upper Caney lake near Minden, Louisiana.  The run, set in the slight hills and oak flats of the Kisatchie National Forest; is a beautiful spot to enjoy nature at its finest.   It's not too hilly, not too rocky, and not too root-laden.   It's just right! Goldilocks would love it!   This is an "Old School Style" trail run.   It's a perfect first timers race!  

 There will be a RUN CANEY shirt this year...not a GOATS shirt.

Runners are expected to pay $5 at the park for entry, per car.  I suggest car-pooling!  Folks who camp at the Beaver Dam Campsite the night prior are immune to park entry fees due to their campground registration.  

There will be a running clock at the finish.  Racers will be handed a numbered index card as they finish.  The runner will then write their name and time on the card.  Results will be posted only on the Run Caney Facebook page.  Race results may be posted to runsignup; I'm going to try their mobile timing app.  Runners will receive a long sleeve shirt and there will be light snacks available at the finish line.  Overall male and female winner in each race will get an award of some type.  Age group winner will receive a home-made ornament of some type.  Also, there is a $5 parking fee for the park....so carpool if you can.  There is a hard cut on the shirts of November 29th!!!  I will order some extras but if you want a guaranteed shirt.....order before the 29th.

THERE IS A SHIRT ONLY OPTION.  IF YOU CHOOSE THIS....YOUR SHIRT MUST BE PICKED UP AT THE RUN WILD STORE DURING PACKET PICKUP.  I'M NOT HOLDING YOUR SHIRT FOR YOU AND MEETING YOU SOMEWHERE.  IN THE PAST, IF WE'VE KEPT IT AT THE STORE AFTER PPU; IT WOULD BE MONTHS BEFORE THE RECEPIENT WENT TO CLAIM IT....WE'RE NOT DOING THAT.
