Black Toenail Friday Half Marathon

Black Toenail Friday Half Marathon & 7.5 Miler is a Thanksgiving weekend trail race held at Proud Lake State Recreation Area in Commerce Township, Michigan. Runners choose between a half marathon and a 7.5-mile course, winding through well-maintained trails amid late-fall pines and lakes. The race is billed as Michigan’s favorite Black Friday running tradition, offering a late-morning start in a scenic, crowd-free setting with close parking.

Perks include finisher medals, a long-sleeve tech shirt or hoodie options, post-race food and drinks, live results, and awards, plus points toward the Trivium Michigan Mega Medal Series. Virtual options are also available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
