Love the trails?
Love fall weather? Enjoy live music, food trucks and camping? Would you like to enjoy these things and at the same time support a great local cause? The Run Wild 24 Hour Trail Running and Music Festival is a 24, 12 or 6 hour timed trail event for both individuals and TEAMS with live music, camping and food trucks. Results are measured on distance accumulated - rather than on finishing time - so everyone finishes! The course consists of gorgeous, fall-colored single-track trail divided into two 3 mile loops – so you have an aid station, food, friends and music every 3 miles. This is an event designed for ALL ages and capabilities. Run, walk, eat or sleep at any time. Do this as an individual - or organize a TEAM with as many people as you would like and divide up the hours and miles between you. Go the extra mile and Theme Your Team to support your own cause or just celebrate Halloween in style. Fun prizes for the best themed team! TEAMS ARE PRICED AS an initial entry fee plus a fee per additional member. Event proceeds will benefit the Mad Anthony Children's Hope House - serving families by saving them considerable time, energy and dollars in travel and overnight lodging while their children undergo lifesaving treatments at area hospitals.The Hope House offers families who would otherwise sleep in cars and hospital lobbies a safe haven at a donation of $10 per day – and no family is turned away for the inability to pay. Believe it or not, many families are unable to afford even this small donation, so this event truly helps people in need. Come out to this Festive and Fun Trail, Camping and Music Event in beautiful Franke Park just north of downtown Fort Wayne, IN and enjoy a fall weekend on the trails with friends, food and music and perhaps some urban camping under the stars. |
