About
Its time to take off on a new adventure with Trivium Racing! Blaze through one of the fastest courses in the Detroit area at Willow Run Airport. We will be hosting this race on the same weekend as Thunder over Michigan, one of the largest airshows in the nation! Is there a better venue for a run? This will be a great opportunity to see some of the coolest aircraft first-hand before gates open. Once you finish and get your custom finishers medal, stick around because your race entry also acts as a free pass into the air show! See the simulated battles and check out the amazing aircraft on display. You can even take a ride on The B-17 Flying Fortess!
PLEASE READ: Due to a planning oversight by the Museum, who put a lot of hard work into making this event possible. The 5K, which was planned to take place on the actual runway, will be forced onto the airport service road instead. This is a huge disappointment to everyone involved and comes as a huge surprise as we all have been sure the event was good to go since December. Participants who have signed up prior to this notification on 8/11/2016 can receive a full refund by emailing rich@triviumracing.com

Course Change: Unfortunately the course has been changed for 2016. This is a new event and while they worked hard on the event the museum failed to confirm all necessary approvals for the event. While all athletes will still be able to have exclusive access to the planes prior to the event, the course will take place on the airport service drive.
