The 4th Annual Robert J. Lynes Memorial Road Race is a 5K run/walk race with a kids Fun Run just before. It is being held in memory of Bobby Lynes who was a lifelong resident of Meriden.

In high school Bob ran on the track team at Orville H. Platt High School. Throughout his life he volunteered in Meriden for many different organizations such as:

• The Meriden Daffodil Festival

• The Meriden Men's Softball League

• The Meriden Girls Softball League

• The Meriden Soccer League

• Boy Scout Troop 43

• Castle Craig Playhouse

• Francis T. Maloney High School Props and Paints

• The Francis T. Maloney Marching Band Pit Crew

Monetary donations and proceeds from this road race will go into The Robert J. Lynes Memorial Fund for the preservation and beautification of Hubbard Park. Proceeds from previous years races have gone towards a beautiful bench put in the park dedicated to Robert for anyone to go and sit on and enjoy the beautiful park, as well as a donation made to plant more daffodil bulbs and a donation was made to the Daffodil Festival for the 45th anniversary fireworks display for 2025! We hope you can join us in honoring him and his dedication to the city and park that he loved, Meriden’s beautiful Hubbard Park.

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.
