    Welcome!

    Come join the CT Trailmixers for the annual Fall Fling 400 trail races! This year we’re again offering race entry options. These races are a great opportunity to give trail running a try.

    Entry Options

    Fall Fling 400 You can run as many loops as you’d like of a roughly two-mile trail course as long as you're done within 400 minutes (six hours 40 minutes). You’re not required to run an ultra distance — at least 28 miles (or 14 loops) — although many people will. Whether you want to try your first trail race, or go for an ultra distance, this event is for you.

    Spring Fling 4 Miler Complete 2 laps of the roughly two-mile course.

    Fling Fanatic Series Do the double - Spring Fling 600 and Fall Fling 400!

    We aim to make trail running fun, with a well-marked course that offers a great variety of terrain and scenery. And you’ll get plenty of cheers and high-fives throughout the day — along with what some past participants have said is the best aid station spread they’ve ever seen.
