Frozen Yeti : Winter Wild Thangs Trail Series Race 1
Frozen Yeti is a trail running event organized by RunningLane Events at Monte Sano State Park in Huntsville, AL. It is the first race in the Winter Wild Thangs Trail Series, a set of three winter trail races that include both short and long course options. The event field is capped at 400 runners.
Distances:
- 5 Miler
- 10 Miler
Courses include bluff views, creek crossings and waterfalls. Several aid stations are placed along the routes offering water, Gatorade, coke, GU, pretzels, M&M's and granola bars. Marco's Pizza is listed as a series sponsor and pizza is provided at the finish line.
The event is a cupless race; participants must carry a handheld bottle, pack or reusable cup. A RunningLane reusable cup is available for purchase at checkout for $5. Organizers state there will be very loose cutoffs and note a 17 minute per mile cutoff for Long Series participants. They recommend that runners who cannot maintain 15 minute miles consider the Short Series.
All entrants in the Frozen Yeti 5 Miler and 10 Miler receive a short sleeve tri-blend t-shirt and a finisher award. Entries are nonrefundable and organizers do not mail shirts or medals to participants who do not attend. Registration closes December 16 at 11:59 PM CT and listed prices fall within a specified range. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
