FES PTO Chocolate Truffle Shuffle 5K Trail Run

The Chocolate Truffle Shuffle 5K Trail Run takes place at Giddings Park in North Franklin, Connecticut. Organized by the Franklin Elementary School PTO, this chocolate-themed event is held on National Truffle Day and utilizes the park's trail system.

Available distances include:

  • 5K Trail Run
  • 800m "Mini Chocolate Chip" Kids Fun Run

The 5K course consists of three loops around the trails of Giddings Park. Participants encounter one large hill during each loop, resulting in a total elevation gain of 235 feet. The event is chip timed by The EMPIRE Timing Co. All finishers of the 5K race receive a custom-designed medal. Awards are presented to the overall male and female finishers, as well as winners within specific age divisions.

The event is open to participants of all ages and is dog-friendly. The 800m fun run is specifically designed for children aged 12 and under. Bib pick-up occurs on the day of the race at the park location. Same-day registration is permitted via credit card payment. All funds raised from the event support programs at Franklin Elementary School. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
