Event overview
This is a trail running event in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, organized by TYDISH Running as a second annual edition at Kohler-Andrae State Park. Distances offered:
- 9 miles
The course is described as generally flat with a total ascent of 509 ft and descent of 485 ft. Park entry requires a daily or annual pass to be displayed on the vehicle windshield; passes can be purchased in advance or at the gate. The park closes at 11:00 pm, and participants without a campsite must leave by that time. Post-event food and drinks will be provided, with gluten-free, vegan, and other options; awards are given to the top three overall women and men, and all finishers receive a commemorative token.
Course and logistics
Runners follow a mixed-surface 9-mile loop that includes concrete paths, wide trails, beach sand along Lake Michigan, campground sections, a marsh/pine/prairie trail loop (Black River trails), a 1.45-mile boardwalk with uneven and potentially slippery boards, and a final beach segment before returning to the start. The course is marked by ground flags, orange cones, and tall 5 ft flags. There is a three-hour time limit to complete the course (about a 20-minute mile pace). One aid station with water and electrolytes is located in the Black River section (around mile 5.5); no other on-course aid is provided. This is a cupless event; participants must bring their own drink vessel. Cowbells and other loud noise makers are not allowed, and no alcohol is provided.
