In case you needed another reason to run FLATS as fast as you can, we're excited to add our newest sponsor, Something & Nothing, which means we'll have an incredible selection of their flavors at the finish line!

Trust us, just thinking about this has our mouth watering! So good.

Most of you have seen our beautiful race course--over eleven miles of lovingly maintained single-track along the shores of Forest Lake--but this is the first time you get to see our beautiful 2026 poster, which again is a gem!

There are three ways to get a copy, all of which we heartily endorse:

1. Stop by the Thompson Campus Center and grab a copy.
2. Message us and we'll send you one to post at your favorite running store (or above your fireplace).
3. Grab your copy after you cross the finish line at Jackson Stables (our favorite option).

Thursday (the 3rd) is your last chance to register for the 16th Annual F*L*A*T*S Trail Half Marathon before prices go up.

Race day is Saturday, October 3 with the start line at Thousand Hills State Park in Kirksville, MO.

As always, we're counting the days until we get to see you all at Jackson Stables, at the marina, and most of all back at the FINISH LINE at Jackson Stables!
