Trees Trail Challenge
The 13th annual Trees Trail Challenge takes place on November 21 at The HUB on Franke Park Trails in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The event features both mountain bike races and trail runs on wooded singletrack with tight turns and varied terrain. All races start and finish at The HUB, located just beyond the BMX parking lot and next to Derby Hill; The HUB is also used for packet pickup and awards.
Event distances include:
- 20 Miles mountain bike race, two 10 mile laps
- 10 Miles mountain bike race, one 10 mile lap
- 10 Miles trail run, two 5 mile laps
- 5 Miles trail run, one 5 mile lap
Entry fees listed by the organizer are $40 for mountain bike races and $35 for trail runs; participants 18 years and under may register for a flat $5 fee. Participants who register for both a mountain bike race and a trail run receive 50% off the run entry.
Age group awards are given to first place finishers in male and female categories across these age groups: 9U, 10-14, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80-89, and 90 plus.
