Both the 5k and the 8 mile are sold out!!! We are still in need of volunteers, especially course marshals and water stop workers (see volunteer link at the bottom of the page).
Celebrate the fall colors and changing seasons with a trail run through Secor and Wiregrass Metroparks!! There will be two races - an 8 miler and a 5K (full disclosure...due to the need to use existing trails, the distances are actually about 7.7 and 3.3 miles. So you have the opportunity to set PR's in a new distance!!). Both races start at Secor Metropark on the all-purpose trail. Runners in the 8 miler will start adjacent to the Secor Room at Secor Park, follow the all-purpose trail counter-clockwise, connect to the Moseley Trail and follow it to Wiregrass Lake, then do a loop around the lake and return on the Moseley and all-purpose trails to the finish at the Secor Room. Runners in the 5K will run one loop of the "long version" of the Secor park all-purpose trail. Both courses are flat and non-technical. Walkers are welcome in the 5K.
Packet pick-up: (1) at Second Sole: Thursday, October 19th (4:30 - 7:45) and Friday, October 20th (4:00 - 5:45) and the morning of the event until 8:45 a.m.
The Falling Leaves event is one of three events in the Toledo Roadrunners Club Trail Series presented in partnership with Metroparks Toledo and sponsored by Second Sole.
