About this race

This is a classic 5 mile trail race through the  beautiful rolling hills of Lincoln Parish Park.  This race is one distance only; 5 miles.  Put on in conjunction with LPP; this is a production of Get On A Trail Shreveport LLC.  ( The Former: Old School @ LPP guy)

This race is happening on the day of a big park festival.  It'll  be a great day at the park with activities for everyone! The park will directly benefit from this race.  

The race will be timed.  The race will start and finish down near the water by the concession pavilion.  It will include part or all of the lake loop and about 4 miles of trail.  If you're familiar with LPP; it will be the last 4 miles of trail...miles 6-9.   If you ran the 5 miler at The Old School; this will be a different section of trail! 

Overall first place male and female winners will get a special award.  

There will be refreshments served after the race. Chips and a cold drink.

PACKET PICKUP IN THE PARK ON RACE MORNING AT 7-7:45.
