The Longest Night (50mi - 50k - 26.2 - 13.1 - 10k)

🌕 Ahem... Hello, dear runners. It is I—your guiding glow, your silent cheerleader through the darkness—the Moon. 🌌✨ Allow me to personally invite you to one of my favorite nights of the year: The Longest Night Trail & Ultra Run at Lakewood Nature Preserve. Trust me, I’ll be watching every step. 🌙👣   As I rise over the trees and cast my silver light across the prairie, you'll embark on an overnight running adventure like no other—starting at sunset and continuing ‘til the first golden whisper of dawn. 🌄 From the cozy charm of an old barn nestled in the preserve, you’ll set out on a 1.5-mile loop through wide grassy trails under my watchful eye. Whether you're a seasoned ultrarunner or just testing your night legs, this is your time to shine.   Every loop you run, you’re racing both the clock and the stars. ⏳✨ You’ll have 25 minutes to complete each loop—plenty of time to push your pace, then cozy up by the fire with fellow moonlit wand
