Fall Fling 400 - YMCA Camp Sloper, Southington, CT
The CT Trailmixers present the Fall Fling with two race options:
- 400-minute event - repeat loops of a roughly two-mile trail course.
- 4 Miler - two laps of the roughly two-mile course.
The course is a roughly two-mile loop with moderately rolling hills. It is run mostly on single-track wooded trails with some dirt and gravel road sections. Sections include rocks and roots as well as smoother stretches. The route will be marked with flags.
Course support is centered at the main pavilion start and finish area. There will be one aid station offering traditional trail ultra food, water, and electrolyte drink, with many baked items available. Participants may set up drop bags and gear at the start/finish area. This is a cupless event; participants should plan to use their own cup or mug. Portalets will be available near the start and there are restroom facilities a few hundred feet from the aid station.
The event uses chip timing and counts laps displayed on a monitor at the start/finish area. Only laps completed within the 400 minute limit count. Pacers are not allowed and only registered participants may be on course.
All registrations must be completed online. Registration caps are 150 for the Fling 400 and 50 for the 4 Miler. Finishers receive a CT Trailmixers gift and a finisher medal. Awards recognize top male, female, and non binary competitors. Race proceeds support local organizations and a shoe scholarship program.
