Earth Day 7K Trail Run

Event date and time
April 23, 2016 - 9:30 AM

Nature Up North and the St. Lawrence Land Trust welcome you to join us for the first annual Earth Day 7K Trail Run. This flat 7 kilometer (approximately 4.4 mile) course connects the Kip and Saddlemire Trails at St. Lawrence University, passing through scenic forests and wetlands along the Little River. This is a great course for runners and walkers of all fitness levels. April weather is ever-unpredictable, so please dress appropriately and be prepared for a few muddy spots along the trails. The course will be well marked, with volunteers at all major intersections. Short road segments connect the longer stretches of trail.

Refreshments and a local prize raffle will be included after the race. The Field Station has an indoor restroom.

Register online at (insert link here). You may also sign up on race day. Entry is free, but donations are appreciated. Proceeds benefit Nature Up North and the St. Lawrence Land Trust’s community outreach and land conservation initiatives.
