Allerton Park Trail Run

The Allerton Park Trail Run, organized by the Second Wind Running Club, takes place at the scenic Robert Allerton Park in Monticello, Illinois. This event features a challenging 5.7-mile trail run and a 2-mile nature walk, both designed to showcase the park's natural beauty and rugged terrain. Participants can enjoy the thrill of navigating roots, ruts, and sharp turns along the river.

The event encourages a festive atmosphere, especially with its proximity to Halloween, inviting costumes and offering prizes for best costumes and age group awards. Proceeds from the run support trail maintenance and park enhancements, fostering community engagement and environmental stewardship. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
