## Description

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
