Michigan Monster Dash

The Michigan Monster Dash is an annual running event held at Kensington Metro Park, featuring a variety of race options including a half marathon, 10k, 5k, and a 1k kids dash. This family-friendly event is known for its scenic views and relatively flat course, making it accessible for runners of all skill levels. Participants can also choose to run virtually, allowing them to complete their chosen distance at their convenience.

The event supports Make-A-Wish Michigan, encouraging donations to help grant wishes for children with life-threatening illnesses. The next Michigan Monster Dash is scheduled for October 25, 2025. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
