Boreas, the Greek God of the North Wind and bringer of Cold Weather, can be a trickster and no one knows this better than those who run! The challenging but fun trails of Bristol Woods are ideal to let Boreas know that he cannot stop you! This 3-mile looped course will consist of single track trails and wide groomed paths that lead you on an adventure through this 197-acre park! This event allows the participant to decide their distance for the event based on fitness, goals, and Boreas. The three distances of 3, 6 or 9 miles are the perfect distance to keep you on track and show winter that it cannot slow you down. (Figuratively of course... running in the snow actually does slow you down!) This event is part of the 2019/20 CaniCross Event Series. Canicross Athletes will run a timed 3.0 mile (approximate) loop. There will be an option to run more loops should you and your pup desire. Please note that CaniCross athletes start 15 minutes before the runners/walkers. CaniCross athletes start at 10:15 a.m. and the runners/walkers will start at 10:30 a.m. After you are done, enjoy warm food and warmer company around a bonfire. Please BYO beverage or dessert to share! Entertaining trail stories and some surprises will make this Trail Adventure one that you will not forget! This event is perfect for all fitness levels and is dog-friendly for those not interested in participating in the CaniCross Event

Meraki is a Greek word which means “to do something with passion, with absolute devotion, with undivided attention”. There are many answers to why our participants participate in our events, but they all can agree on the fact, when they are running/walking the trails, they are doing so with passion, devotion, and undivided attention. The Meraki Trail Run is 4.5, 9.0, or 13.5 miles of immersion in the experience of trail running in the spring. Bullfrogs and songbirds will be your soundtrack. Muskrats, deer, forest, and wildflowers will be your backdrop. The new spring grass will give you the bounce in your step to complete your chosen distance (or perhaps more)!
