Fall Fling 400

The Fall Fling 400 is a CT Trailmixers trail race held at YMCA Camp Sloper in Southington, Connecticut. The race is structured around a clock: participants run loops on a roughly two-mile unpaved course for a maximum of 400 minutes, or six hours and 40 minutes. Runners decide their own distance, making the event suitable for beginners trying trail racing, those seeking a few relaxed laps, or ultra runners targeting 28 miles or more. The course consists entirely of trails, is well-marked, and features varied terrain instead of a fixed point-to-point path. Runners pass the aid station repeatedly. Past participants have highlighted the aid station's offerings as a notable aspect of the event. The race began in 2016, does not offer prize money, and can be combined with the Spring Fling 600 via a double-entry option known as Fling Fanatic.
