North Shore Trail Run Half-Marathon, 10K & 5K
8th Annual
In the
State Park, Clinton Lake, Lawrence, KS
9:00 AM Race
Director: Ben Holmes, badbendrs@yahoo.com , 816-810-0440
(This race was previously a 8-miler and 5K race).
This is a fun trail-running event with something for everybody. There's a 5K that's perfect for first-time
trailrunners. The 10K is fun, but challenging. The Half-marathon is a one-loop course of awesomeness! The trails that you'll
be running on are true "single-track" trail; fully-wooded (and shaded), not too hilly, and fairly technical.
This race is a lot of fun, and many Trail Nerds started running on trails, because of this little event. We
moved the start to within the State Park in 2011, to help with State Park funding. There is a $5 entry fee (per car),
to enter the State Park, but it is a worthwhile cause, to support this wonderful State Park!
All entrants get a
really nice tee-shirt, a mug, and a mileage-specific oval finisher's sticker.
All Half-Marathon finishers
get a large, uniquely-designed finisher's medal.

This is a fun trail-running event with something
for everybody. There's a 5K that's perfect for first-time trailrunners. The 10K is fun, but challenging.
The Half-marathon is a one-loop course of awesomeness!
The trails that you'll be running on
are true "single-track" trail; fully-wooded (and shaded), not to hilly, and fairly technical.
Because
it's harder to pass on a narrow trail, we don't allow the use of headphones or earbuds, in this race.
Also, you'll
need to carry a hydration device or water bottle with you, since the unstaffed aid stations won't have cups. (There
are staffed and unstaffed aid stations, about 1.5 to 2 miles apart).
The Trail Nerds help to fund the trails that you are running
on and the State Park that you are running in, as well.
Dick Ross of SeeKCRun will be there, to take your photos. Free photos will be posted to
his site at http://seekcrun.com
