Fountainhead Trail Run

Running Pace:

Some people run fast, some people run slow, some people run/walk.  All options are OK.   Our Trail Run/Walk is scheduled for 2.5 hours — so faster people can run further if they like.  Paul will be running about 12-minute mile and Dawn around a 14-minute mile.

What Trailing Running Shoes Do I Need?

We’ve done all the work for you, and rounded up the best trail running shoes on the market.  Links and brand names will be provided to you after your RSVP.

Hydration Vest or Hydration Belt

Since we’ll be running for around 2.5 hours, you’ll need a hydration belt or hydration vest for the run.  You’ll probably want to bring some electrolytes and running gels too.

If you don’t have a hydration vest, we have Nathan Brand Running Vests with Water Bladders you can borrow.  The rental Fee for Hydration Vest, electrolytes, and energy blocks is $20 (the vest will be prefilled and we’ll handle cleaning & disinfection for you.)
