Falling Leaves 8 miler and 5K

Date: Sunday, October 26, 2025

Location: Berkey, OH 43504 US

Description: Celebrate the fall colors and changing seasons with a trail run through Secor and Wiregrass Metroparks! There will be two races - an 8 miler and a 5K (full disclosure...due to the need to use existing trails, the distances are actually about 7.7 and 3.3 miles). Both races start at Secor Metropark on the all-purpose trail. Runners in the 8 miler will start adjacent to the Secor Room at Secor Park, follow the all-purpose trail counter-clockwise, connect to the Moseley Trail and follow it to Wiregrass Lake, then do a loop around the lake and return on the Moseley and all-purpose trails to the finish at the Secor Room. Runners in the 5K will run one loop of the "long version" of the Secor park all-purpose trail. Both courses are flat and non-technical. Walkers are welcome in the 5K.

• 8 miler: $43.00, 9:00AM EDT - 1:00PM EDT
• 5K: $33.00, 9:15AM EDT - 1:00PM EDT
