Our course takes you through some of Duluth’s most breathtaking scenery, creating a run that’s as captivating as it is challenging. It all begins at Hawk Ridge, perched high above Lake Superior, where the air is crisp and the views stretch for miles. As you set off on Skyline Parkway, one of Duluth’s most iconic roadways, you’ll wind along the hillside with the lake in full view.

The course then leads you to the descent down Seven Bridges Road, where each turn brings you closer to the sound of rushing water and the sight of the historic bridges spanning Amity Creek. This is where you’ll "Bridge the Gap," crossing these timeless structures as you transition from the heights of the hillside to the shores of Lake Superior.

From here, the journey continues out to Brighton Beach where the lake welcomes runners with crashing waves. Halfway through the course enters the iconic Lakewalk which guides you towards downtown Duluth. The energy builds as you approach the finish line, the field of runners and our vibrant community welcoming you with open arms.

*Construction Updates*

Good news! The Duluth Women’s 10 Mile course you know and love will remain the same despite all the ongoing construction on our course this fall! We’ve been working closely with the City of Duluth to ensure the Lakewalk and Seven Bridges Road portions are ready for race day on September 26.

The City is making a special exception to open the Lakewalk for DW10 participants and spectators. Due to ongoing construction, some sections of the course will be gravel, so please use extra caution in these areas.

We can’t wait to see you on race day!
