Last Chance: Leatherman's Loop Lottery

If you've always thought about running the Leatherman's Loop—the trail race that runs through Ward Pound Ridge Reservation just across the CT border and can include waist-high water to wade through and mud so mucky it sucks shoes off—Monday's your last chance to sign up for the 2013 event.

All runner registration will be via Loop Lottery for the 27th Running of the Leatherman’s Loop on Sunday, April 21. The lottery opened Thursday and closes tonight at midnight. Once it is closed there will be no new lottery entrants accepted. 

To sign up, visit the Leatherman’s Loop website and follow links to the registration site. You'll need to enter your contact information and a credit card number that won't be charged unless you've secured a race bib for the race.

What happens after midnight?

Those who've secured a number—and those who haven't—will be notified via email. Organizers say there are more interested runners than spots, and some may be disappointed.
