Twisted Ankle Trail Race
5K, 10 Mile & Half Marathon

Trail Racing Disclaimer!! This is a trail race! You will have rocks, nature, roots, birds, trees, dirt, bugs, maybe a snake, and a good time! You will not have traffic, chip timing, sidewalks, expos, or haters. We say this is 5K (ish), 10-mile (ish), "half marathon", or a close to 20-miles give or take, because your Garmin, GPS, or magic wand may not give you an accurate distance, or maybe we made this race just the right length for you to see all of the most beautiful parts of the park. If you got less mileage than you thought for this race, please run some more! If you went a little longer than you expected, you got your money's worth! Everyone is running the same course!
