2022 Cancellation

 Hello All,

It is with a sad heart I write this email. I am cancelling the 2022 Autumn Trail Series. It will be the first time since before 2009 there will not be a Series. You will all receive full refunds, excluding the RunSignup processing fee. If you made a donation, that will be refunded as well. 

This year has been a year full of changes. I accepted a position with Twin Cities In Motion as the Event Operations Manager. My mom officially retired from helping with the Series. I tried to find someone to take over or at least direct the races, but did not find anyone who met my expectations. I know how much you all enjoy the Series so I decided to go ahead and figure a way to do it. As preparation for the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend ramped up and my mom being irreplaceable, I realized I would not be able to provide the same if not better experience than previously. 

Thank you all for your support of the Series over the years. It has been fun putting it on. 


See you on the trails!


Sam

Race #4 Information

 Hello Runners,

It is Race 4 day! The end to another Series. Here are a few things to know for today. 

 

We encourage all to wear a mask when we are in close quarters pre-race and post race, especially when inside Jan’s Place. There will be hand sanitizer available also.

Packet pickup and parking are back at the Jan’s Place at Edgewood Picnic Area, past the Visitor Center at 10145 Bush Lake Rd, Bloomington. 

5:00pm-Check in/bib pick up begins
6:00pm-Open Race begins
7:00pm-Awards & Drawings begin 

The weather is forecasted to be cool, rainy and windy for race. It is forecasted that the rain will lighten closer to race time. If need be we will delay the start of the race.

We will have a water stop near the campground. The water stop is sponsored by Steve Smillie, realtor with Edina Realty. 

To pick up your packet you will walk up to the picnic tables outside Jan’s Place.

• Give the volunteers your last name
• They will give you your number, your beer ticket (if an adult) and drawing ticket 
• Go to the next table to pick up your hoodie if you signed up for the Full Open Series and have not picked it up yet.

Here is a link to the Southern Loop course. This is the course from 2018.

We will have Kathie's Coffee on site with some delicious samples both pre race and post race. 

Our drawings will feature swag from  FITS Socks, a gift certificate for a 1-hour massage at Thrive Chiropractic, and Wooden Hill Brewing crowlers. We will be doing a combination of what we have done in the past with some of the awards drawn during the race and the numbers posted and the beer will be drawn live. We will be awarding the top 3 male and female runners in this race gift certificates to TC Running Company. Overall Series winners will be announced and awarded.

Don't forget to thank the volunteers!

See you later today on the trails!
