Tryon Farm 4 Miler/8 Miler/25k/50k and 2 mile Fun Run/Walk
This event is held at Tryon Farm in Michigan City, Indiana, and uses a 4-mile loop course through the property. Multiple race distances are offered on that loop, with longer distances completed by running multiple laps.
- 2 mile Fun Run/Walk
- 4 mile trail run (one 4-mile loop)
- 8 miler trail run (two loops)
- 25k trail run (four loops)
- 50k trail run (eight loops)
The course surface is a mixture of open grassy fields, single-track dirt trails, and short sections of pavement used to connect parts of the trail system. The main aid station is located at the start/finish area; there is an unstaffed water and Gatorade station near the 1.5-mile mark. Two port-a-potties will be available at the main station and there are no bathrooms on the course. Participants are asked to wear their bib on the front of their shirt so laps can be counted.
Parking is not available at the start/finish area; attendees park across the street at Head Start of LaPorte County. The event benefits the Tryon Farm Institute and is part of the Crazy Legs Race Series, which promotes non-pavement and pavement races in Northwest Indiana. The series states an inclusivity policy allowing transgender runners to register as the gender they identify with without documentation. The organizers also provide course maps on Relive and Strava.
