Runners Shirts
In an effort to keep our race green and reduce waste, we have created registrations to allow registrants to opt out of receiving a finisher's race shirt. Cut off date to register for a race with a finisher race shirt included is July 8, 2025. Any leftover race shirts can be purchased after the race at the finish line area for $15 (we do not order extras, so only unclaimed shirts will be available for purchase; not all sizes are guaranteed to be available). All race shirts not picked up on race day become property of Urban Wildland Half Marathon and 5K.
Personal Belongings: Lockers
Lockers are available for use inside the arena. The lockers are not supervised, but runners may bring their own padlock.
Description
An urban hometown celebration of Richfield's running community and culture, the Urban Wildland half takes place through the most scenic parts of the city! The Urban Wildland Half and 5K is presented by Wood Lake Nature Center, which 100% of proceeds from this race benefit environmental education. A partnership that has lasted over 50 years between the Richfield School District and Nature Center.
NOTE: The Wood Lake Nature Center building will be under construction during the 2025 race, so the course will be different from previous years. Please check back to see a map of the newly-designed course!
Virtual race registration now INCLUDES shipping costs; your shirt (if you opt for one) and finisher medal will be mailed to you (domestic US only....for shipping out of the US, please contact us).
