About this race
AN OLD-SCHOOL LOUISIANA TRAIL EXPERIENCE
RUN CANEYNot too hilly. Not too rocky. Just right.
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2026 • 8:00 AM
CANEY LAKE PARK • MINDEN, LOUISIANA
Leave the pavement behind.
Escape into the woods for Run Caney, a trail-running adventure through the scenic landscape surrounding Caney Lake. With gentle hills, roots, rocks, and winding trails, this is the perfect opportunity to experience some good old-fashioned trail running.
As I've heard a few times in the past, "It's not Christmas until we Run Caney"
