A Note About Leatherman’s Loop 2018 Entry for Trail Mix 2017 Finishers

To all Runners who completed the 2017 Trail Mix Series:

You are guaranteed selection in the Leatherman’s Loop Lottery for 2018 ONLY IF YOU ENTER THE LOOP LOTTERY.

You have to register for the Loop Lottery so we know how many spots are available to the other regular entrants in the Loop Lottery.

You are guaranteed to get picked for a spot in the Loop Lottery if you are a Trail Mix series finisher — but we can’t enter your name into the Loop Lottery automatically. We need you to sign the USATF waiver and enter your credit card to pay for your entry.

If you are not sure you completed the 2017 Trail Mix Series, check here: 2017 Trail Mix Series final recap article including ALL series finisher names at bottom.

Thanks for understanding — and making our work easier 😉
