The Buffalo Trace Trail Race is a Second Wind Running Club race and is part of the Second Wind Running Club race circuit.

The Buffalo Trace Trail Race takes you through the approximate 5-mile trail at the Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve. You will run on wooded trails and through the prairie. Online registration is available through race day. A percentage of the proceeds and all donations from the race will be donated to the Forest Preserve Friends Foundation.

Parking is ONLY available at the Mahomet-Seymour High School (302 W State St., Mahomet).

The race start/finish is a short walk north of the High School to the Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve west parking lot off Crowley Road.

Pets and running strollers are not permitted in the race.

Packet pickup will take place on race day from 730-845am in the parking lot of Mahomet-Seymour High School.
