PAX, the trails are waking up, and it is almost Halloween. The BackYard Scare is back. Come run, jog, ruck or walk the Backyard Trails in the dark, with a pumpkin-sized dose of fellowship at the end. It is a CSAUP, not a race. Nobody gets left behind, and nobody needs to be fast. What: The BackYard Scare - a CSAUP trail run When: Saturday, 10/31/2026. 0600 start Where: Tyvola Road Parking Lot / 2229 Tyvola Road, Charlotte, NC 28210 (Greenway access across the street) Distance: 5 to 10 miles. Pick your number and stay with your group QIC: Sloppy and WhatDid Pace: Group run. No one is dropped Hashtag: #TRAILCSAUP THE THANG We start at 0600 sharp, in the dark, after a short safety briefing. Sloppy and WhatDid will point the way, and the trail is built for exploring. Go 5, go 10, or find your spot in between. Every mile on the trail counts. Back in the BackYard Scare days, we capped it off with festivities after the run. Families are welcome at 8am for breakfast at Mugs or trunk-or-treat (the Qs are working out which). Bring the Ms and 2.0s. Costumes are welcome. Bring the spirit. BRING Headlamp or bright light (required for the dark start). Trail shoes. Water. A layer for the cold. Costume if you dare. HC here, and pick 5 or 10 so we can see the numbers for each: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScPrgLR3G_pXk2RkVrKWuB2ltgoAAb0hxaRTYBOsYFrMOqKDw/viewform RULES OF THE TRAIL This is a CSAUP, not a race. Stick with your group. Watch your footing on roots and leaves. Bring a buddy and a friend who has never been out here. Tell the PAX around you if something looks off. HC, then SYITG. HC on the form so Sloppy and WhatDid know the 5-mile and 10-mile numbers and how many families to expect at 8. Bring a friend. Tag it #TRAILCSAUP. See you in the dark. Sloppy and WhatDid
