Race Information
This race is short and fast. And there is a party; what's not to love?
Come on out to Shorewood and Downer Avenue during the Kwik Trip Tour Of America's Dairyland. The streets will be closed, the party will be bumping, and there will be throw-downs for a fast-mile road race!
You can do just one of the races, or you can do both to complete the series. Runners who do both will be automatically entered in a draw and possibly win prizes.
Find out which High School produces the fastest milers! When registering, you can enter which area high school you went to (or coach at), and the school with the fastest team will earn a donation to their program.
