The Arctic Frog course offers an awesome panoramic view of the scenic City of Mayville Wisconsin. It is mostly paved asphalt and roughly 30% crushed limestone trail. While advertised as a “beginners” Ultramarathon, make NO mistake … it won’t be a gimmie as it is NOT flat! What’s more, if … MORE

    Overall Rating: Really good cold weather run.

    Course Difficulty: A few rolling hills to keep the legs and mind challenged, but wide and flat asphalt or cinder the entire time.

    Course Scenery: Nice northern landscape. The four loops get a little old, but the scenery around the lake and river is enough to keep it interesting.

    Race Production: Good. There were some aid stations called out on the race documentation that weren’t there, and some of the AS food and drink was different, but all in all, no major hiccups or blunders…definitely a solid organization.

    Race Swag: The real reason I was here. I needed that 12th buckle for the year and this is a nice one! Other features were a well designed long sleeve tee, a race sticker, and an aluminum water bottle – all high quality stuff.

    My Performance: Better than expected. I picked up some new friends on the way, stopped to help a couple of people in need (which ate up about 10 minutes), and still managed a PR; needless to say, I’m good with that.

    Final notes: I don’t love cold, so this will never be my favorite race, however, it is a fantastic race and a really good organization; I can certainly put my stamp of approval on it.

    12 months, 12 buckles, well done Keith! Hopefully you'll give your body some time to rest and recover before launching into your next challenge... and I can't wait to see what that will be. Congrats on an amazing 2019, and happy holidays to you, Debbie and the kids! LESS
