Mizuno Cabrakan Veteran's Day Fantastic 4-Mile Trail Run

New Location: Shelter 9, Wyandotte County Lake Park, Kansas City, KS

One of the toughest 4-milers that you'll ever run. Switchback trails...in Kansas???
This scenic race has a lot of up and down, and some very fast sections. Why does it feel so much longer than four miles? The world may never know.
This is a race to honor the veterans among us. If you are a veteran, or current or former member of the armed forces, police, fire department, park ranger, or EMT emergency services, your entry is FREE. Just show up on race day and fill-out & sign the waiver. $10 entry fee for "regular folks." Any race proceeds to go to ERTA, toward trail maintenance & building.
Trail Nerd Sweat Shirts and clothing available for purchase. First 3 overall males and females get a free Trail Nerds shirt - your choice of types. There will also be a random drawing for some Mizuno goodies, free Mizuno socks to many runners, and we'll give away some Dirty Girl Gaiters, too.
Some proceeds to Trail Masons for trail building / maintenance.
Registration is on the day of the event ONLY and opens at 7:30 a.m. (at the race, shelter # 10 ).
Please check-out the Veterans Memorial at the main gate of the park.
