Prickly Pear Land Trust is holding the 19th Annual Don’t Fence Me In Trail Run on Saturday, May 11, in Helena, with four different races ranging from a 30K run to a 5K dog walk. The PPLT website has full race and event information, and interested runners and walkers should note entry fees go up on May 9. The Don’t Fence Me In Trail Run has emerged as not only one of Helena’s major community events but also a showcase trails run for participants. From the PPLT website: Each May, Montana’s trail running season kicks off with Helena’s Don’t Fence Me In Trail Run. What started off as a small gathering aimed at generating support and excitement for local open space is now a major community event celebrating our local wild lands and our connection to them. And what better way to celebrate the outdoors than wandering the switchbacks and rough terrain with your fellow outdoor enthusiasts!
