From the organizer

Celebrate Missoula's urban forests with Run Wild Missoula and Missoula Parks & Recreation at the 34th Run for the Trees on Saturday, April 11, 2026!

Choose between the 10K, 5K or a FREE 1-Mile, un-timed, Family Fun Run!

Keep in mind, this race takes place in Missoula, in April. What does that mean to runners? It means you never know what kind of weather we're going to have or what the weather will decide to drop on the streets as it passes through (i.e. sleet, rain, etc.). Be prepared for potentially slippery surfaces, potholes (watch for puddles!), uneven surfaces, and loose sand and gravel!
