Run Caney

🏃‍♂️ Event Overview

Run Caney is back again! This will be a 5K, 6 mile and 12 mile loop run around beautiful Upper Caney lake near Minden, Louisiana.

The run, set in the slight hills and oak flats of the Kisatchie National Forest: is a beautiful spot to enjoy nature at its finest. It's not too hilly, not too rocky, and not too root-laden. It's just right! Goldilocks would love it! This is an "Old School Style" trail run. It's a perfect first timers race!

The race will take place at: 194 Caney Lake Parks Road, Minden, LA
