About the Miller Landing Madness 8K/5K/3K Cross Country Run
The course runs through Elinor Klapp-Phipps Park, a wooded preserve on the north side of Tallahassee. This is cross-country terrain, meaning rooted paths, open grass, and the kind of footing that rewards trail shoes. Several distance options make it a natural fit for both high-school runners kicking off their season and club runners shaking off a summer of easy miles.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at Cadence Running, a local running shop on Capital Circle NE, where you can also drop off canned food donations. You can also pick up at the park on race morning. The food drive benefits a regional food bank, and runners are expected to bring cans along.
