About the race
The North Shore Trail Run is an annual non-profit trail running event held at Coast Guard Park in Spring Lake, Michigan, featuring scenic trails in North Ottawa Dunes. The event offers multiple distances: a 10K trail run, a 5K run/hike/walk, a combo 10K + 5K option, and a free 2K Kids Fun Run encouraging Halloween costumes. Runners receive a unique locally grown pie pumpkin finisher medal called the "Vegdal." The race supports local nonprofits including Love in Action, Chariots of Fire Youth Running Club, and Ferrysburg Fire Barn Park.
The course includes aid stations and is marked with colored flags for safety, with a festive post-race party and awards for top finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
