(USATF Certification #WI17005DM ) Enjoy a beautiful route that utilizes Menomonie’s newest trail system around Lake Menomin!
Runners will start running through Menomonie’s east side, through the Dunn County Recreation park, around the Stout Technology park and then begin heading north onto Menomonie’s beautiful trail system which will take them by Menomin Park and onto Menomonie’s newest trail that crosses utilizes a bike/walk bridge crosses over Lake Menomin and then the trail continues to follow the lake as you head into Wakanda Park. As the trail temporarily ends in Wakanda Park, the course reconnects with the trail system that will take the runners south back towards downtown, again overlooking Lake Menomin. After passing Menomonie’s library you will cross over the bridge that connects north and south Menomonie, go past the historic Mable Tainter theater, run on a portion of UW-Stout’s campus finishing on Wilson Street near the back side of Burger King where post race celebrations will be held immediately after the race.
The 1/2 marathon will have seven water stops and several Powerade stops spread over the course in 1.5 and 2 mile intervals. After the race, a wide variety of food and beverages will be provided to participants.
We will have pacers to accompany you on your run to help you reach your goal time. Pacers will be wearing “pacer” shirts and carrying signs with the following times to help you achieve your finish time goal: 1:45 / 1:50 / 1:55 / 2:00 / 2:10 / 2:20
Participants will have three and a half hours to complete the race. Participants who are unable to keep a pace of 16 min/miles by mile 8 may be asked to leave the course to ensure the safety of all participants and to stay in compliance with the time allowed by the city/county to keep the course open.
