Lake Mohegan Trail Race
The 2nd annual Lake Mohegan Trail Race, a WOMEN'S ONLY trail race event in Fairfield, CT is scheduled for Saturday, April 27, 2024. Steep Endurance is trying to bring more awareness to the availability of trail running for women. Typically 30-40% of participants in trail races are women. In 2023 we had 110+ runners. Lake Mohegan, with its very runnable/variety of trails, make for an ideal backdrop for this type of event and gives NEW women trail runners a great introduction to trail running, but also provides a great course for those more experienced participants. The race will also be open to non-binary runners as well
Distances
Three different events will be offered: 5K, 10K, and a 4 hour option for participants to run/walk as many miles in the allotted time on the 5K loop.
Registration

Course Description
The course is extremely pretty and runnable with the footing generally good throughout, but there are a few short steep hill sections, but nothing of great length. Both the first time trail runner and the experienced trail runner will certainly enjoy the loop. The loop is 5K in distance with the 10K runners doing the loop twice and the 4 Hour runners as many completed loops as they can before Noon.
Post Race Celebration
If you've never been to a trail race before, we feed you well after the event! Enjoy your accomplishment, sit back, relax, and don’t forget to cheer on all the runners coming in behind you! We will have the usual spread including bagels, fruit, muffins, pre-packaged snacks, and plenty of beverage options.
