The 5th Annual FLATS Trail Half Marathon is scheduled for Saturday, October 17th at 8:30 a.m. Upwards of 100 runners will start at the flagpole besides the Thousand Hills Marina and run the unpaved Thousand Hills Trail all the way around Forest Lake finishing at Jackson Stables.
This has been a huge event for the Forest Lake Area Trail System, bringing tons of hikers, bikers, and runners to the beautiful Thousand Hills Trail, motivating volunteers to keep the trail in amazing shape, and raising more money than any other event for the successful construction of the first phase of the Forest Lake Area Trail System. This race really embodies the spirit of trails!
