Little River Trail Runs Rougemont, NC   Jan 19, 2019

The Little River Trail runs are back to our usual 10 mile and 7 km distance options, with the 10 mile starting at 9am, and the 7 kilometer at 9:30am. All races are run on the lovely single track trails at Little River Regional Park. The race is presented and staffed by the TrailHeads, a volunteer group of trail running enthusiasts.

Race proceeds benefit Little River Regional Park. Over the last 13 years, our event has resulted in over $93,000 in donations to the Park, as well as donations to Triangle Off Road Cyclists (for trail building in the park) and NC Green Power (for carbon offsets). We’ve been able to donate more than $100,000 in total! Please help us to continue to support Little River Regional Park and local single track trails.

A special option this year, for those of you who want to run a little more, is to run the 14er: Do the regular 10 mile run, cross the finish line, and head back out to run the 7 kilometer course. 14 miles for our 14th Little River! 14ers should register for the 10 mile race, and then choose the “Run the 14er” option in the add-ons section. Please note that you will receive an official time and results, and be eligible for overall and age group prizes, for the 10 mile run only. There are no regular age group and overall prizes specific to the 14 mile distance – this is for fun. And perhaps, a random, unicorn-quality prize will find its way to 14er finishers… there is no extra charge for this option.

The race will be held at the beautiful Little River Regional Park on the border between Durham and Orange Counties. The park offers visitors over 15 miles of single-track trails, comfortable pavilions for picnics, and a playground for kids. Proceeds of the race go to the park. Please join us for fruit, bagels, and warm beverages at the end of the race.
