About this race
The Malta 5k Trail Race course begins at the Luther Forest Tech Campus soccer fields and quickly enters some of the best maintained trails in the area at 100 Acre Woods.
Most of the course is covered in stone dust and 6' wide. Other sections are on soft ground that feels like you are immersed in nature. This course is for everyone that loves to run or hike on trails with beautiful scenery the whole way! #Malta5kTrailRace
Volunteers from Roundabout Runners Club maintain these trails. 100% of proceeds from the event go to activities that support the club efforts to keep these trails in great shape!
Price increase after the Malta 5K Road Race on September 12th, then again the last week before the event.
