Run the Ritter

Run The Ritter is a trail running event held in Lakeville, Minnesota, offering 3-mile, 5-mile, and 10-mile race options, along with a Canicross division for runners with dogs. The course features a 5-mile loop with rolling hills, a mix of wide off-road trails, some gravel road sections, and a total ascent of 525 feet. It is designed to be accessible for both new and experienced trail runners, with a non-technical terrain that resembles a cross-country course rather than single-track trails.

The race is well-organized, with enthusiastic volunteers and a well-marked course, making it a popular end-of-season trail run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
