Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Loopet Loppet in Minneapolis, Minnesota, starts and finishes at the Trailhead in Theodore Wirth Park (1221 Theodore Wirth Parkway). The event offers a 12-hour and 6-hour ultramarathon format, plus a relay option, where participants run or walk as many 5-mile loops as possible—solo, or in a four-person relay.

All-day Indigenous People’s Festival at the Trailhead includes Native vendors, artists, storytellers, and Dakota cultural activities.
