The Kinni

River Falls, United States • 2 Aug 2025

The Kinni is an adventurous running event held at Kinnickinnic State Park in River Falls, Wisconsin.

The race emphasizes strategy, endurance, and exploration, with unexpected challenges along the way. Aid stations offer water, snacks, and gels, while the event promotes environmental responsibility by encouraging participants to bring their own water containers. The Kinni offers a unique, self-directed race experience in a beautiful natural setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
