Cow Chip Classic

The Cow Chip Classic Run/Walk is an annual event held in Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin, featuring a 10K run and a 5K run/walk. Now in its 45th year, the race takes place during Labor Day weekend alongside the Wisconsin State Cow Chip Throw. Participants start near Marion Park, cross the Wisconsin River, and follow scenic routes including the challenging "Heartbreak Hill" and the Lake Wisconsin Golf Course for the 10K, while the 5K course turns onto Golf Road before returning to town.

The event offers chip timing, age-group awards, refreshments, and facilities such as restrooms and showers. Proceeds benefit the local community through the Sauk Prairie Community Club. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
