Fall Running Series

 

The cool autumn air makes for perfect trail running in Cuyahoga Valley National Park.  Take advantage of this by participating in the Fall Running Series.  These trail runs are unique as they take you through beautiful and challenging parts of the valley, and keep you in suspense as the course details are kept a secret until the day of the run.

There will be a different starting location for each run, and runs will range between three and six miles in length.  All skill levels of walkers and runners are welcome to join the fun!  Events will be held regardless of rain, sleet, and snow so be sure to check the weather.

This will be a scored series competition with points being earned after every run, and a unique national park award will be presented to the top finishers.
