URBAN TRAIL SERIES

URBAN TRAIL SERIES is presented by Eastside Racing Company and Move-It Fitness Events at Bloomer Park in Rochester Hills, Michigan. The series takes place on three Wednesday evenings in summer 2027: June 30, July 28, and August 11. Registration opens August 27, 2026; individual race registration deadlines vary by race.

The event uses a well-marked 5K loop on park trails that aims to provide an urban trail experience. Chip timing and official results are provided. Registrations are offered per race and as a series option with different fees for single races and the full series.

Finisher medals will be awarded at each race; the medals are designed to fit together for participants who race multiple dates. Light snacks and hydration are provided at the finish on June 30 and July 28. The series finale on August 11 includes a post-race cookout with a grilled item and hydration. Weekly age-group awards and series awards are part of the event program, and ERC gear is noted among weekly age-group prizes.

Paid parking is in effect at Bloomer Park starting in 2026; the park operates from 8:00 am until dusk. A daily park fee of $1.50 per hour applies and can be paid through ParkMobile, or by holding a valid Rochester Hills Annual Parks Pass.
