Course Information:
A flat and fun 5 mile run/walk and 2 mile run. Using the streets and paved bike trails in Middleton, WI, this course is great for a winter run. Extremely flat, this course is great for the beginner and fast for the elite. But remember, it IS winter in Wisconsin after all, the course could be dry and quick or slippery and slow. It may even have 12” of fresh snow on it. Race Day Events will do it’s best to provide optimum running conditions, but please note that Mother Nature has the last say.
