About the Osprey
The Osprey Trail Run offers a unique experience inside the 94-acre George Lestrange preserve in Fort Pierce, Florida. The race gets its name from birds of prey known as ospreys (Pandion haliaetus) which are commonly seen fishing over the lake in the preserve.
This loop-based race takes runners around a beautiful lake, along Ten Mile Creek, and through various terrain that includes technical single track winding trails, hard packed gravel, beautiful oak lined hammocks, oxbows, hills and low lying wetlands. Net proceeds from the race are donated to St. Lucie County's Oxbow Eco Center to support their environmental education programs.
