Race Information
The Iowa Trail Run Series is not about spending a bunch of cash for no reason. You’ll get a great race with clear marking and course support, with basic timing, a cool custom bib, and a rotating race item such as a BUFF, socks, a stocking cap, a coffee mug, and an aluminum water bottle. Do you want a really soft and comfy tri-blend shirt with one of the race's Animal Icons? Great! Add one during your registration. Plenty of post-race food to refuel! Games! Giveaways from sponsors!
