Course and logistics
The race uses a small scenic portion of the Ice Age Trail as an out and back from Rice Lake. The Ice Age Trail is a long footpath with varied terrain; trail surfaces range from smooth and well maintained to very technical, and footing can change quickly. Course maps and elevation profiles are available for each distance. Intermediate race cutoffs are safety-based and will be indicated by race staff; detailed cutoff information will be provided in the athlete’s guide. For the 50K, runners must carry a water capacity of 1 liter. Volunteer roles are available and offer race credits and merchandise in exchange for support.
