Description

A 5K run/walk or 10K run benefiting the Peshtigo Community during Peshtigo Historical Day. The 10K run follows the Peshtigo River, then takes you on a secluded, wooded trail to where the Peshtigo Fire Tower once stood. A beautiful trail will take you back on roads through the City of Peshtigo. The 5K route follows the Peshtigo River, then takes you through the back streets of Peshtigo's shaded Badger Park. Both races begin and end around the track at Bulldog stadium. 

***New change to course in 2019!: All routes will turn LEFT around Badger Park to start (used to go right in the past). When returning on the course to finish, you will run THROUGH Badger Park this year (not around it) on a well groomed gravel trail for a very short distance, going through the park to the school track to finish with a 3/4 lap around the track. **  10K course will turn LEFT after the trails to return on Seward Heights Road and River Bend Drive, rejoining the 5K route. 10K will NOT turn right this year to go out by CTY D.
