Hope for Heather is an IRS 501(c)3, 100% volunteer organization. This means 100% of the net registration proceeds and 100% of fundraising dollars goes to the cause. We are passionate about spreading awareness on ovarian cancer and funding research to improve outcomes and save lives. Prizes will be provided for individual fundraisers that raise $100, $250, $500, or $1,000. View the fundraising prizes below.

2025 Teal Ribbon Run-Walk Fundraising Prizes

​The race offers two race distances, our 10 miler and 3 miler.

10 miler: If you are a local CNY runner, you know about our own little backyard gem - Green Lakes. This race will take you through all the twists and turns of this beautiful park. The race starts at the sandy beach of Green Lakes and slowly winds its way around Round Lake and up towards, as the locals call it, the Serengeti. The race continues its way around the top before its descent to the lakes back to the beach.

3 miler: Want to try your hand at trail racing; however, you want a shorter race distance? Test out racing around the 2 lakes! The race starts at the sandy beach of Green Lakes and slowly winds its way around round lake and back to the beach.

*Considerations before registering. Pease wear the appropriate footwear, and note that there is potential for injury. When you register for the event you agree to release Miles & Macros, LLC, Sand to Serengeti, and all of it's affiliates of any liability.

Welcome to the 27th Highland Forest 1-2-3 on Saturday, May 23, 2026.

This is an old school type of race - minimal cost, minimal aid stations, but an extraordinary experience on a fun but challenging course with good food and drink at the end. Where can you run a 50km for as little as $25! Cost will go up on 3/1. We'll also have a giveaway for those who register before 4/25.

To keep it interesting, we will run the first 10 mile leg in reverse direction from last year to give everyone a new challenge. For those doing the 20 , you will reverse course for the second loop and those doing the 50k get to pick the direction they'll run on loop 3.

The race begins at 8:30 am and consists of one, two, or three loops on marked trails in Highland Forest County Park. The course covers 10, 20, or 31miles (50KM), with climbs of 1380', 2760', or 4140' respectively. You will be able to switch race lengths during the race provided you meet the cutoff.

WHERE: Highland Forest is located about 3 miles east of Fabius, NY on Rte. 80; see directions. The race starts and finishes at the Community Pavilion just across the road from the parking lot. There is no fee for parking, but the Park welcomes donations.

WHEN: Bib pickup and registration is at the Community Pavilion (across from the parking lot) starting at 7:30 AM. The on-site race day registration fee is $55.

WARNING: It is possible to sprain ankles, break bones, and encounter wildlife and insects such as black flies and/or bees. Carry medication if you are allergic. Trail running requires agility of foot and the ability to keep one eye on the trail and the other on the blazes (markers). Some will get lost momentarily. If there are no blazes in front of you, go back. You may encounter vehicles on the dirt roads and at crossings.

TRAIL CONDITION: The course is about 95% on hiking trails and 5% dirt roads. It will have a mixture of single track and wider logging lanes. Expect mud, roots, gravel and soft pine needle trail!

TIME CUT-OFFS: The time cut-off for beginning the second loop is 3 hours. Cut-off time for a third loop is 4.5 hours.

REST ROOMS: There are rest rooms in a separate building near the Community Pavilion. No shower facilities at the park.

REFRESHMENTS: Minimal support will be provided on the course. Carry hydration and fuel as you require. One water stop is planned at ~5 miles and the Start/Finish area will have water and fuel available. Depending on volunteers, more support may be available but do no count on this. After the run, enjoy food and beverages at the Community Pavilion. We’re planning on grilling again this year and may have have carrot cake muffins.
