The Forest Lea Trail run starts Saturday morning (August 6th) at 8:00am. Race Director Greg Watts says registration for the event is closed, but says there was great turnout for their first event.
There are three race distances including a 3km, 10km and 28km run. Watts says they will use pretty much all of the trails out at Forest Lea.
The Forest Lea Trail run will follow many of the routes being used by the Forest Lea Enduro event that is taking place on Sunday. Watts says they hope to make this an annual event.
Registration for the event closed on Wednesday night.
The Race Director wanted to thank all the sponsors who helped make the event possible including; Endurance Tap, Hyska’s Your Independent Grocer, Two Hawks Brewing, Ottawa Valley Roast House, Madameek, Max & Wilder Co. with support from Laurentian Valley and the Water & Dirt Festival.
