Rob's Trail Fest

This year is our 6th Annual Naples Youth Corporation 5k/10k!! We are happy to say our race will again be the beginning of May on the 2nd. And, wait until you see our beautiful outdoor stage!!! We will have music and announcements on the Naples Youth Corporation's brand new outdoor stage this year!! Please know that a significant amount of the funds received from our past 5 years of races helped support the planning and design costs as well as the direct costs of construction. The Naples Youth Corporation is grateful for all your past support and hope you will return once again!!

Youth 18 and under - please register under the "Youth" 5k or 10k race designation to receive your free shirt. Create a team of 5, and the team with the fastest time will win a gift certificate to one of our fine local establishment! Best of luck!

New this year - KID'S DASH @ 8:20am - 2 waves of our adorable younger runners who don't want to run a full 5k will run a short distance prior to our 5k/10k start. Youth ages 2-5 will run first, followed by kids aged 6-10 in a second wave. No registration required, just sign up with an email or on race day.

As always, we will run or walk in wind, rain, snow, or shine, and last year, we did just that - it was a chilly, wet day. We hope to see you once again with some sun this time. This run/walk still remains the major fundraiser for the Naples Youth Corporation.

Due to increased costs of supplies, performance tech race shirts will be available for purchase for adults, but our cotton shirts remain FREE for youth - thank you to our sponsors... There will be shirts available to purchase when you pick up your packet - first come first serve.

Financial assistance is available for youth registrations - please email for more information. As in previous years, 12 and under are free to register, and 18 and under are discounted to $10. Register under the "Youth 18 and under" race for further information.

If you are interested in the 10k distance, please register for the Naples Youth Corp 10k Race. Please note: Mt. Misery available on 10k loop only - please sign up for the 10k if you are looking to challenge yourself!

What is the Naples Youth Corporation you may ask?? Please read the Mission and Vision for the Youth of our community:

"The Naples Youth Corporation's mission is to provide all youth of Naples and its surrounding communities a safe, stimulating and inclusive environment to explore opportunities in education, recreation, and personal growth. It owns property north of Academy street, across from the Naples High School building. This property will be developed for use by youth in Naples."

Visit Naples Youth Corp on Facebook for details of other events occurring following the race! It will be a great time to come down for a run and for an exploration of our beautiful community!

Footin’ It For Family is a nonprofit organization made up of family and friends. We first came together in 2012 to form a 5K team in honor of those in our families who had been affected by cancer. As a team, we participated in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Elmira, NY from 2012-2016. In those five years, our team raised and donated $15,500. In 2017, we formed a committee and decided to host our own 5K race to benefit our local communities. Our first year, we were able to donate $5,500 and this year we raised $35,000 for the second consecutive year! In our first nine years, we have proudly donated over $200,000 to the Ann and Carl Myers Cancer Center in Dansville, NY. We are extremely proud to support an organization which has benefited so many families throughout our local communities.

The racecourse

Overview for 12/24-hour races

• Run as many laps/miles as you can in 12/24 hours.

• One Lap is about 1 mile long.

• There is no minimum required amount of time to be on the course, nor will you DNF (did not finish) if you do not run the entire 12 hours. One complete Lap of the course qualifies you for an official finish. You can run as long or as short as you want, depending on your personal goals.

• Walking, stopping to rest, and even napping is allowed.

Overview for 12-hour overnight Relay

Not ready to go in circles for 12/24 hours yet? No problem! There is a 12-hour relay option available.

• Each relay team must have at least two but no more than four team members. Each relay team gets a BIB attached to the BIB belt before the start. The BIB belt serves as the relay baton.

• It's up to each team to decide the order, length of the distance, or time for each team member. There is no minimum distance or time requirement per team member, and there are no rules for the rotation within the relay team. The team can start with only two team members during the first 6 hours and let the other two members rotate during the last 6 hours of the race. If desired, teams are allowed to pass the BIB belt after every Lap or every hour or else.

• The team captain registers the team, and members are added to the team for free. User coupon code 'relay' when registering your relay team or when joining the relay team

Aid Station

• The course will feature one fully stocked aid station with great ultra fare throughout the run. Also, it will be easy to self-support - bring your own cooler, tent, chair, and/or other supplies and set up your personal aid station that you can visit every Lap.

Personalized BIB Option

• For $10 extra, race participants can put any personalized message on the bib - as long as it is PG rated in every language.

• A personalized Message can be your first name, last name, pets name, the cause you want to promote, or anything else.

• For longer messages, a smaller font size may be used to fit the message on the bib.

• There is no separate scoring division for personalized bib message holders. All 12-hour participants get scored together, and all 24-hour participants get scored together as well.

• The registration for personalized bibs ends about a month before the race.
