Event Description

Join Gustavus Adolphus College and the St. Peter community for The Hilltop Gustie Trot, presented by the SPM-244 Class and the Sport Management Student Org. on November 21st, starting at 8:00 a.m.! Our mission is to host an event that fosters relationships by creating an environment for the St. Peter community where local sponsors, community members, and the Gustavus population engage with each other during a low-stakes, festive 5k. 

The Hilltop Gustie Trot will feature two races: a 1-mile Kids Race and a 5 km race for participants looking for a longer challenge. The 1-mile course is specifically designed as a kids' race, giving younger participants an opportunity to get involved and experience the excitement of race day.

Both races will start and finish at Hollingsworth Field on the Gustavus campus, creating a central location where participants and spectators can gather, cheer on runners, and enjoy the event. Both events are open to the public, of all ages and abilities.

Whether you are running the 5K, bringing your kids out for the 1-mile, supporting friends and family, or simply enjoying the atmosphere, the Hilltop Gustie Trot is an opportunity to get active and strengthen the connection between Gustavus and the St. Peter community!
