The third annual Mountain Goat Trail Run and Walk, co-sponsored by Mountain Outfitters and the Mountain Goat Trail Alliance (MGTA), will be on Saturday, April 2.
“Thanks to the collaboration between the Town of Monteagle and the MGTA, we opened the Monteagle-Sewanee section of the trail in time for last year’s event,” said Patrick Dean, executive director of MGTA. “We are excited to partner with Mountain Outfitters again to promote the trail and to get people walking and running for a good cause.”
The five-mile run will begin at 10 a.m. in downtown Sewanee; a two-mile walk will begin at 10 a.m. at Pearl’s Foggy Mountain Café. Both will finish at Mountain Outfitters in Monteagle. Additional sponsors include Road ID, Mountain Medical Clinic, North Face, Salewa, CamelBak, Swiftwick Socks and Kavu.
Prizes will be awarded for the fastest men’s and women’s finisher, and for best runner or walker costume. There will also be drawings for outdoor gear after the race.
Registration is $15 for students. For non-students, the fee is $25 for early registration; $30 the day of the race. Registration forms are available at Mountain Outfitters, Woody’s Bicycles and online at <www.mountaingoattrail.org>.
Refreshments will be available at the finish.
