Run Like a Fool 5K / 10K - October 24, 2026
A trail race for people who don’t take themselves too seriously.
Ever thought about trail running but felt intimidated? Run Like a Fool is a small, welcoming trail race designed for road runners, first-timers, and seasoned runners who just want a fun, no-ego race day. No pressure. No massive crowds. Just good trails, good people, and a reason to try something new.
Why This Race Exists
This race was created for runners who:
- Are curious: about trails but nervous to try.
- Want a challenge: without feeling overwhelmed.
- Care more: about the experience than the podium.
What to Expect
- Scenic trails: runnable paths that offer beautiful views.
- Relaxed vibe: an encouraging atmosphere for all participants.
- Walkers welcome: inclusive for non-runners.

This is the kind of race where people talk to each other before the start and cheer strangers on.
