The 5K is like none other as it winds through hard packed sand roads through the beautiful Pere Marquette Forest. Our 10K has become a favorite of trail runners statewide and is known for its challenging topography and peaceful surroundings. Both runs supported by the Traverse City Track Club. Our family friendly space is perfect for hanging out during and after the race. Medal ceremony following the race.
All registered participants will receive a t-shirt, timed results, swag bag of goodies, and refreshments after the race. Plaques will be awarded to the top 3 male and female runners. their names will also be added to the Annual Race Plaque at Peace ranch.
