Tryon Farm 4 Miler/8 Miler/25k/50k and 2 mile Fun Run/Walk
This event is scheduled for October 3, 2026 at Tryon Farm in Michigan City, Indiana. The course is built around a single 4-mile loop through Tryon Farm. Distances available include:
- 2 mile Fun Run/Walk
- 4 mile Trail run
- 8 miler (two loops)
- 25k (four loops)
- 50k (eight loops)
The surface is a mixture of open grassy fields, single-track dirt trails and very small sections of pavement used to reach other parts of the trail system. The main station is located at the start and finish area. There will be a non-manned water/Gatorade aid point 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. Because there is no parking at the start/finish, participants will park across the street at Head Start of LaPorte County, 811 Royal Rd, and walk over. Runners are asked to wear their bib on the front of the shirt so loops can be counted.
The event benefits the Tryon Farm Institute. It is part of the Crazy Legs Race Series, which promotes mixed-surface races in Northwest Indiana, hosts events in Lake, Porter and LaPorte counties, affirms inclusive registration for transgender runners, and includes a land acknowledgement for local Indigenous nations.
