We're going virtual!
The 14th annual Cat Tracks 5K Trail Run/Walk is going virtual!
Due to the recommendations from the CDC and the State of Michigan, we are changing Cat Tracks 5K Trail Run/Walk into a virtual race. With a virtual race, you can run the distance anywhere, for example in your neighborhood, on a treadmill, or at a nearby park! Unfortunately, the original course is not available to run as part of the course is private property. You will have between Saturday, August 29, 2020, and Sunday, September 6, 2020, to complete your race. Once you have your 5K completed you will send in your time to the Run Signup website. Instructions for this will follow.
