This event offers a unique experience for runners of all levels amidst the beauty of nature and features a variety of distance options to suit every participant's preference.

The adventure begins approximately 30 minutes before sunset, allowing runners to witness the stunning transition from day to dusk as they embark on their journey. It's essential to come prepared with a headlamp and any other necessary items to navigate the trails safely, especially as darkness sets in. Join us for an unforgettable experience as you challenge yourself and bond with teammates or embrace the solitude of solo running in the picturesque setting of Starkey Wilderness Park. The Squiggy Relay Trail Run promises excitement, camaraderie, and memories that will last a lifetime.​

All riders must agree to only take this race semi-seriously.  This race is family friendly, newbie friendly, and for the young and fun at heart.

Team members can decide on ride order. A rider has the option to allow another team member to do more than one lap consecutively. Remember, this is semi-serious.

Choose your race:  solo or team.  Each team consists of 2-4 riders. Enter your team name when you register. That will link you with your team members if you have them.

There is very little room for passing other riders, thus the reason for SEMI-SERIOUS. If you are approached by a faster rider, pull over and let them pass. Those doing the passing should give the not-as-fast rider a woohoo for being awesome. This event is meant to be more fun than serious. Please bring your fun attitude and leave the rest at home.

As your hosts for Squiggy’s Gnome Roam, we wish you the greatest experience possible, on your bike or on your feet, satisfaction knowing that you have taken part in supporting our trails and that you leave the event eager to return or attend another Swamp event.

Over the past 35 years, Swamp has become known for building the trails in our local area that all of us have grown to know and love. To continue, we must do fundraisers, that allows us to purchase the necessary equipment to help our volunteers maintain and keep the trails safe for you and your family. In addition to  our 5 existing trail systems, we are in the process of adding a new trail system in Pinellas County, along with others that are in our plans. It takes a lot of community support to make these things happen.

The fun begins with a Thursday check in to camp in the beautiful Starkey Park wilderness camping area. All tent sites are primitive camping except for 8 cabins. The cabins sleep 8 and are very rustic. Check out is Sunday.Lets get the adventure started. Come camp with us.
