Description

Come see what this new trail race format is all about ⛳🏃‍♀️ 
Trail Golf offers a gamified twist on trail running where competitors race to complete successive routes within given time windows to earn points, or "strokes". Like in golf, least strokes at the end wins! This FREE fun-filled preview event is a condensed version of the full Endurance Challenge that will occur on 6/15 at Creekside Trails. Join us for this unique trail running challenge, win some prizes, and hangout with your fellow runners at Trailyard afterwards!

 

Note: This event consists of trail running ON TRAILS - not on a golf course. There's no golfing involved. Only the theme and scoring system is tied to golf

 

-How it works-
For this "mini" version there will be three unique 1-mile marked routes (or "holes") that start one after another, 20min apart. Runners will have those 20 minutes to complete the route and return back to the start. Depending on the time window you finish in (see scoring key below), you'll receive a stroke score. The aim is to get the lowest combined score at the end of the three holes. This is a fun run and will not be officially timed. However, we will have a clock running at the start/finish for runners to keep track of their own times/scores.

 

-Further Info-
This race preview fun run is open to anyone. Whether you're signed up for the race, love hanging out with other runners, or just want to dip your toes into the world of trail running, this event is for you. We'll be starting off the evening at 6pm with a quick introduction about the trail system and race format, then we'll start the first hole at about 6:10pm. 20min later we'll start the second hole, and 20min after that we'll start the third. Once everyone makes it back, we'll raffle off some sweet prizes like Trailblazer branded apparel and hats, race nutrition/gear from our sponsors, and free race entries! After that we'll walk on over to Trailyard to hangout and share stories 😁🍔🍻
