    Welcome to the 14th annual FTBT-Herron Half Marathon/10k/5k and Kids' Race! Please see the main webpage (Herron Half/10k/5k) for details, but here a few key points to know:

    PLEASE CARPOOL! We are limited in parking. We will have a team of people helping to make parking as efficient as possible, but we need your help by sharing rides.

    Official start times: 7:00 a.m. for the Half Marathon, 7:15 for the 10k and 7:30 for the 5k. There will be brief pre-race meetings 10 minutes before each start.

    These races are our largest annual fundraisers. We’ve kept registration fees low over the last 12 years to keep the events affordable. PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO SUPPORT OUR MISSION! The money raised from the races goes directly to building and maintaining trails in the 40+ mile FTBT system. In addition to event fees, our trails thrive largely in part to our dedicated sponsors. Please see the main webpage (Herron Half/10k/5k) for the list of this year's sponsors.

    The Flathead Race Series!

    See main website for details. Races include FTBT races, the Big Mountain Run, the Whitefish Trail Blazer races, and the Le Grizz races. At the end of the year, Competitive Timing will compile a list of all who have completed the series as well as a leader board.

    Join us for our 8th year of our point-to-point mountain marathon show casing the newest trails on the Foy's to Blacktail Trail system! Maximum 100 sign ups allowed, so sign up soon! Racers with gather at Herron Park at 5:30 a.m., with final bib assignment and a pre-race meeting starting promptly at 5:45. Busses leave promptly at 6 a.m. to take racers to the start at the Lakeside to Blacktail Trail (NO parking at the start of the race). More details about the course (see cool interactive map from OnX Backcountry), drop bags, Race Series, etc., can be found on the main website, Foy's to Blacktail Trail Marathon.

    All runners will be eligible for a random give away of cool swag like a pair of running shoes!!

    Remember to bring your bear spray. All racers must race with it because there is a real risk of running into wildlife such as bears and/or mountain lions that feel threatened and get aggressive. Even those at the back of the pack need to be aware of startling any of these charismatic megafauna.

    There will be a strict 12 pm cut off time to reach the Emmons Saddle aid station, however even the slowest runners in the past have made it under this cut off. You will need to be moving at an average pace of >3 mph to meet this cut off.

    This race, along with the FTBT-Herron Half Marathon, 10k, & 5k trail races, are our longest-running annual fundraisers. The money raised from the races goes directly to building and maintaining trails in the 40+ mile FTBT system, including new trails on Emmons Ridge south to Blacktail Mountain. In addition to event fees, our trails thrive largely in part to our dedicated sponsors. See the main webpage for a list of current and past sponsors. If you are interested in sponsoring this year's or future races, please reach out to [email protected].
