Course description:
The day starts out with an inspiring run/walk along the Root River and Lake Michigan Pathway. All Registrants will receive a finishers medal and complimentary beer (must be over 21). After the run, take a walk to the Racine Brewing Company and enjoy a little taste of Racine.
Please help us make this a safe event. MASKS WILL BE REQUIRED at the start and finish and any mass gathering. To view Racine's Mask Ordinance, click on the image below. We will require masks to be worn at the start and finish. You may remove the mask while running, however if you are walking or running in group (Non-family) and less than 6 feet apart, you must continue to wear the mask per the ordinance. Masks are required in any outdoor public space when within six feet of any other person who is not a member of the person’s family or household.
Get your friends, co-workers, family, and relatives together for this fun, relaxing day in Downtown Racine! THIS IS A FUN RUN - Friendly competition is encouraged, but understand this is a unique route that likely will not allow you to PR. Just enjoy the run and have fun!
The Main Street Bridge: This is our third year utilizing this route. We want to caution you that there is a possibility the Main Street Bridge may be up on your return back to the finish line. This is out of our control as the Coast Guard will not allow us to keep the bridge closed. We feel the route is so unique and picturesque it's worth the potential hiccup. If this happens, volunteers will direct you to an alternate crossing. If for any reason you get held back on the opposite side of the bridge, please note the delay and your time will be adjusted to reflect the same. The bridge raises every 20 minutes if needed for boat traffic.
