Frontcountry Trail Run - Terrace & Marshall Hill Trails

This is a casual run through several trails in the Cougar system, covering 7.85 miles and 2,145 feet of elevation gain. We will look to do an avg pace of 4 mph: fast hike uphill and 4.5-5.0 mph straighaway and downhill. 

Please contact the leader before registering if you have not recently done a trail run of similar mileage, or have any doubt about your fitness and stamina to keep up. Also, if you are a fast runner and feel avg ~4 mph pace is insufficient of a work-out for you, please consider if this trip is a good match for your abilities. We run as a group.
