Tackle the Potowatami & Crooked Lake Trails with us as we celebrate 35 years of trail! The course is neither flat nor fast, but it is a beautiful loop with constant hills through Michigan’s Pinckney Recreation Area. A Michigan Recreation Passport is required for entry into the park. A portion of each entry fee will be donated to the John Rogucki Memorial Fund.
Cozy beanie to all entrants. Laser cut steel medals with powder coat and a paracord lanyard, handmade locally by Detroit Metal Works to all finishers.
Health & Safety
COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS: All health and safety orders in place at the time of the event will be implemented race weekend. Start times are subject to change slightly depending on the wave size allowed, but times below will be the first wave start.
At RF Events, getting all of our faithful participants back to the racing world SAFELY is our highest priority. Over the previous couple of months, a dedicated safety team was created and is working diligently to come up with the best plan to keep all our racers, volunteers and staff safe. We are consistently keeping up to date with the CDC guidelines as well as the state, county and city guidelines for the location of each individual race. To see a link to a broad outline of what we're working on and continuing to update, click here. This is a fluid situation that continues to change so we will keep updating our plan as warranted. We want to be sure to let you know that we're working on it and looking forward to seeing you at a starting line soon!
