Great River Bridge Race
The Great River Bridge Race, held annually in Burlington, Iowa, offers a unique opportunity to cross the Great River Bridge on foot, an experience usually closed to pedestrians. The 29th edition, scheduled for September 20, 2025, features timed 10k and 5k runs, as well as a 1.5-mile untimed Bridge Walk, catering to all skill levels. The race starts and finishes at the Port of Burlington, providing breathtaking views of the Mississippi River and downtown.
Proceeds support local parks and playgrounds. Participants receive a SoftStyle cotton t-shirt and top finishers earn medals. The event fosters community spirit while promoting fitness and outdoor enjoyment. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
