Description:

The Wildflower Trail Run is a 4.5 mile trail run and 2 mile trail run/hike through the trails of beautiful Bristol Woods County Park (Bristol, WI). The event is held on the third Saturday of each May during peak wildflower viewing time at the Pringle Nature Center. 100% of entry fees benefit environmental education programming at Pringle Nature Center.

Enjoy Bristol Woods at its showiest while supporting a great cause!

Why 4.5 miles? This 4.5 mile course is modeled after Dave Spittlemeister’s (one of the organizers of the run) famous “touch every trail” run in Bristol Woods. The course has an estimated 450 feet of elevation gain and many twists and turns. Come conquer Dave’s “touch every trail” course!

Both races will start promptly at 9 am. Online registration is open until 11:59 pm on the Wednesday before the race. Day-of race registration is from 7 am to 9 am on the Saturday morning of the race. Race t-shirts are $5 and available in adult sizes; participants must register by May 5th in order to receive one.

Awards will be given out to the first overall male and female finishers, and the first male and female finishers of each of the following age groups: 19 & under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60 & over for both the 2-mile and 4.5-mile runs. Maps for the race routes can be found below. As always, we will have a generous food spread with homemade cookies and lots of other goodies immediately following the races! Please register below.
