Tiger 10 Miler Trail Race - 9.21.24
Time: 8:00 AM
Location: Byron Forest Preserve
Presented by Byron Bank
Join us for the 7th annual Tiger 10 Miler Trail Race presented by Byron Bank! This exciting race will take runners on ten miles of twists, turns and hills within the Byron Forest Preserve and the more secluded Nardi Equine Prairie. All participants will receive a custom finisher's medal, shirt and our unique age group awards go 3 deep in 5-year brackets. Overall male & female winners and also male and female masters winners will receive awards and a cash prize. Special awards will be given for five-year finishers of the Tiger 10 Miler. Those five years don't have to be consecutive, just five total finishes. This is a "cup free" race so please bring your handheld water bottle or hydration pack as we won't have paper cups at our three aid stations in order to keep our trails clean and be environmentally friendly.
Following the race, the after party will be held at the Hairy Cow Brewing Company from 10:00 am to Noon. Race participants will kick back and enjoy a complementary meal while awards, cash prizes, and door prizes are distributed! Like or follow us on the socials @Tiger10Miler for updates and pictures of the course.
*Walkers are welcome and will start at 7:30 am. The early start is assigned by performance and is not done by or for convenience to competitors. Byron Park District reserves the right to decide entry or not to early start. 18 minute mile pace will finish the course in 3 hours. The early start is out of respect to our volunteers and hopefully will shorten the amount of time they spend working on race days.
