Fall Fling 400
The Fall Fling 400 is a trail running event hosted by the CT Trailmixers at YMCA Camp Sloper in Southington, CT on November 21, 2026. The event offers two main race options that use a roughly two mile loop course at the camp.
- 400 minute race: complete as many two mile loops as possible within the time limit.
- 4 mile race: complete two laps of the roughly two mile loop.
The loop is mostly single-track wooded trail with some dirt and gravel road sections. The terrain includes moderately rolling hills, rocky and root-covered sections, and smoother stretches. The course will be marked with flags.
One aid station is located at the main pavilion start and finish area. The aid station provides typical trail ultra food, water, and electrolyte drink, with an emphasis on baked goods. Runners may set up drop bags and personal supplies at the main start/finish area. The event is cupless; participants are expected to bring their own cup or mug. Portable toilets will be available near the start and real bathrooms are a short walk from the aid station.
Chip timing will count laps and display lap totals at the start/finish area. Only laps completed within the 400 minute limit count for the 400 minute race. Total participant limits are set for each race and CT Trailmixers members receive a discount when registering. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
