Organiser's Description

SECOND WIND RUNNING CLUB WELCOMES YOU TO THE ALLERTON PARK TRAIL RUN!

Let's hit the trails! While out on the trails, runners may find hidden roots, ruts, sharp turns, and other obstacles. The race course follows the river which has proven quite challenging over the years. We donate proceeds back for trail maintenance or park enhancements. They are quite gracious in support and ask how we would like our donations used. They have used our donation towards a railing at a dangerous spot, trail erosion control, recycle bins, water fountain bottle filling station, a new caf'e in the visitor's center, and more. We feel quite lucky and blessed that the park allows us to bring so many into it and pound the trails.
