Fall Fling 400
Fall Fling 400 is a trail running event at YMCA Camp Sloper in Southington, CT on November 21, 2026. The organizer offers two entry options and a marked loop course on camp property.
Race options:
- Fall Fling 400: complete as many roughly two-mile loops as desired within 400 minutes.
- 4 Miler: complete two laps of the roughly two-mile loop (about 4 miles).
The main loop is a roughly two-mile circuit with moderately rolling hills. Most of the route is single-track wooded trail with some dirt and gravel road sections. Some parts are rocky and rooty while other sections are smoother. The course will be marked with flags.
Support is centered at the main pavilion start/finish area. One aid station will provide traditional trail ultra foods including baked items, fruit, chips, candies, water, and electrolyte drink; there will be many baked items. Participants may set up drop bags and a personal area at the start/finish. This is a cupless event; participants should plan to use their own cup. Portalets and nearby indoor bathrooms are available.
The race uses chip timing and displays lap counts at the start/finish. Only laps completed within the 400-minute limit count. No pacers are allowed; only registered participants may be on course. Race proceeds benefit local organizations and the CT Trailmixers Shoe Scholarship Program.
Registration is online only; fees include processing. Entry limits are 150 for the Fling 400 and 50 for the 4 Miler. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
