The Goodwin Forest Trail Run is part of the 2022 Grand Tree Trail Race Series and the 2022 Connecticut Blue Blazed Trail Running series (www.ctwoodlands.org).


A challenging 30K (~18.6 miles) course and 10K (~5.8 miles) course have been established to explore the Goodwin State Forest, the Pine Acres Lake area, and the Natchaug State Forest.


WARNING:  For those new to trail running be advised that trail running has the inherent risks of rocky and slippery footing with a significant possibility of trips/slips/falls.  Please do not enter if you are not prepared to accept responsibility for yourself and these risks.


Post Race:  There will be custom made commemorative Awards of the 8th Goodwin Forest Trail Run for each finisher, and homemade apple pies (30K) and homemade baked treats (10K) for the M/F race winners (Open, Over 40, Over 50, and Age 65+) and for Youth Division. 
Refreshments will be provided for runners and volunteers.


Services:  Water and energy snacks will be available at Aid Station locations as noted in Course descriptions and on Maps.
We encourage everyone to bring their own water bottles to help cut down on waste. 


Free primitive camping is available in the Goodwin Forest Youth Group Camping Area for pre-registered runners/guests only. 
​Please notify Beth Bernard of camping plans.  There are cold shower and changing facilities for runners/campers.


Runners and guests are invited to explore the Wildlife Habitat Gardens, the Children's Discovery Trail, view the exhibits in the Conservation Center and Nature Center, and make native plant purchases.


Volunteers:  Volunteers are needed to assist with day of run Registration, the Aid Stations, the Finish Line, providing directions at the Grand Junction, handling the finish line refreshments, and as Sweepers on both courses.  All individuals interested in volunteering can sign up here:
