Deer Lake 5 Mile Trail Run & Kids 1 Mile Trail Run
Events take place at Deer Lake Outdoor Center in Killingworth, CT, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that manages more than 250 acres of green space and miles of trails.
The main course is an approximately 5 mile trail that crosses the property and includes almost 500 ft of elevation gain. Trails are well marked and offer scenic views while moving across changing elevations. The course is a true trail surface and exposes participants to rocks, roots and possible mud.
A timed kids course of about 1 mile follows a similar trail character and will include the same technical terrain features. Both events will recognize top finishers with awards for overall male and female winners and male and female winners in the listed age groups.
Age group awards are given for 0-12, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and 70+ years. Participants under 10 years of age must be accompanied by an adult along the entire racecourse. T-shirts are guaranteed for the first 100 entries. Please note that no dogs are allowed at the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
