Start and Finish downtown Minocqua.

The Minocqua No Frills Marathon™ & Half- Marathon keeps it simple and affordable because, at this marathon, it’s all about the race. The race accommodates those who aspire to run their first marathon, as well as veteran runners trying to better their times or qualify for the Boston Marathon (certification # WI22019DM).

Blue Raven's beneficiary partner this year will be the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC)
