THE COURSE

This 5k (3.1 mile) race starts at the Harbor View Event Center (The Washburn Inn, 123 Harborview Dr.).  The course passes through quiet Washburn neighborhoods, including a short out-and-back.  At the halfway point, runners will venture onto the Washburn Lakeshore Walking Trail that winds very close to the Lake Superior shoreline with views across Chequamegon Bay.  This trail is packed crushed gravel but does have a few sets of stairs and bridges.  Runners with strollers may need some help getting up these.  The course passes by the backyard of the Harbor View Event Center at 1.7 miles, making excellent spectator viewing (and an opportunity for a tired runner to cut the course short.)  The last 0.7 miles is back on neighborhood streets back the the finish at the Harbor View Event Center.   Dogs are welcome on a leash.  Costumes encouraged with prizes for the best ones.
