Youth Shoe Program
Trail Maniacs is excited to announce this year that we will be teaming up with Fleet Feet CDA to help kids and teens earn free running shoes AND race for free. We at Trail Maniacs feel that running can be a life-long sport, and good running shoes are a small part in running longevity. We also know that a good pair of running shoes can be cost-prohibitive and that’s why we would like to donate a free pair of running shoes (one pair per year) to youth and teens. Most of you know that we have always donated money to local high school cross country programs, and we will continue with that tradition, but we also wanted to step it up a notch.
We are pleased to announce that starting in 2020 not only will Trail Maniacs and Fleet Feet CDA donate a pair of shoes to youth and teen runners (ages 12 to 17) who participate in at least 2 of our running events, we are also allowing all runners under 17 to race for free! Runners will need to finish two of any our 2020 running events. These events include: Liberty Lake Trail Run, Farragut Trail Run, and Mount Spokane Vertical Challenge, possibly even 7 Summits if they dare! Any distance qualifies with the exception of our FREE kids races.
EVENT
7th annual
*** This event has filled up every year and we will not be taking day of registration!
Farragut State Park is such a great place to have a gorgeous trail run. There are miles of single track, stunning views and years of history, Farragut tends to be our most popular event. Located on the southern tip of Lake Pend Oreille in the Coeur d' Alene Mountains of Northern Idaho, Farragut State Park offers unique scenery, history and an abundance of recreational opportunities, including disc golf, radio-controlled airplane field, fishing, hiking, biking, equestrian facilities and even World War II history - don't miss the Museum at the Brig during your visit.
We will start and finish from Scott’s field. Scott’s Field is a huge group camp venue with great views of Bernard Peak, a large shelter that can accommodate 150 campers!!! That’s right we will offer camping at the start-finish are for only $10 per night. Please keep in mind that the camping is primitive, no electricity or RV hook-ups but what it lacks in amenities it makes up for with convenience and of course the companionship of your #trailmaniacsfamily. If you would prefer some privacy you can still reserve your camping spot at Farragut State Park (click here.)
