Loop Lottery FAQs

The Leatherman's Loop is a 10k trail race held each spring. The event has been held annually at the Ward Pound Ridge Reservation in Cross River, NY since 1987 and we believe it is the largest trail race on the East Coast of the United States.

In 2018 the Loop is tentatively scheduled for Sunday, April, 22, 2018 and registration will open via Loop Lottery at 12:01am January 12th, 2018.

Loop Lottery registration will be held from January 12 - January 15, 2018. Drawing for spots in the Loop will take place on or around January 19th, 2018 and be announced via email on that day or shortly afterwards.
