Here we go again. Another cancelled marathon, but don't stop training! We have permitted and certified a course for October 2nd and it is cheap. All the proceeds will be donated to Silver Circle Foundation, Inc 501(c)3. Silver Circle Sports Events, LLC is donating our time, equipment and expertise to the event. It is our way of giving back to the running community.
Course certification number WI21003DM.
This USATF certified course uses the super flat and super fast Lake Country Trail. Course Map [PDF]
We acknowledge an out and back marathon isn't exactly scenic, but it sets up perfect for your spectators to see you 8 times in our two spectator sections along the course!
Overall Male & Female runners for each distance will receive a custom award provided by our partner Ridgeway Woodworks.
Top 3 male & female finishers in 5 year age groups will receive a custom medal.
All finishers in all distances will receive a custom Non Cancelled Marathon finisher medal.
The t-shirts are gender specific, dry wick shirts. Everything you ever wanted to know about shirts can be found right here. The FEMALE shirts run small!
Please register by Thursday, September 22nd to be guaranteed a shirt.
This race is perfect for spectators! They can see marathoners at the start, 8 times on course and at the finish! We have an awesome spectator zone along the trail when the trail runs parallel to Oconomowoc Parkway (see Course Map for detail). There is plenty of room at this location to setup support for runners.
This is a RaceJoy event. You will know exactly where they are on course so you are guaranteed to see them at each split point! No more hoping to see your favorite runner on course.
There will be three aid stations on course (see Course Map for Details):
Aid stations will have water, sports drink, and energy gels. While we do our best to recruit volunteers for our aid stations, runners should be prepared to use self-serve aid stations.
There will also be two on-course bag drop areas for you to leave your nutrition and hydration items. The first is located along the Lake Country Trail in Roosevelt Park. The second is located at the intersection of The Lake Country Trail and Silver Cedar Rd. Both sides of the path can be used, but please place them on the grass and not the path. These are self-placement and self-serve bag drops. We will not be transporting bags on course. Don’t worry, there is plenty of time and space for you to self-place your bag.
To access the location off of Oconomowoc Parkway, we recommend that you drive to the bag drop location before checking in at packet pickup, park on Oconomowoc Parkway, walk across the grass, and drop your bag -- please do not drive and park on Silver Cedar Rd.
Restrooms are available before the race on the south end of Rosevelt Park near the playground and adjacent to the parking lot. They are clean and new! There will be two portalets on course -- which are only meant to be used during the run. One is located at the start/finish turnaround point and the other is near the bag drop area.
