National Sweetest Day

The National Sweetest Day event, held in Nashotah, Wisconsin, offers a variety of running and walking distances including a half marathon, 10K, 5K run, 5K walk, and a free 1K for kids. New in 2025, rucking events (5K and 10K) with weighted backpacks are also featured. The scenic course is primarily wood-chipped trails with over 60% shaded by trees, providing a comfortable and nature-filled experience.

Participants enjoy well-marked routes, aid stations with water and sports drinks, and post-race sweet treats. Awards include custom wood-crafted trophies and finisher keepsakes. The event promotes kindness and community spirit, welcoming runners, walkers, families, and friends to celebrate outdoors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
