Half Marathon Event
The Winter Trail Fest (WTF) Half Marathon at Island Lake course features rolling hills, extremely well-marked trails, frequent aid stations, and beautiful views. Athletes will use a combination of hiking trails and hike/bike trails that will take them all over Island Lake State Park in Brighton, Michigan. Runners and Ruckers will see confidence marker hanging tape every .1 miles and turn signs at every turn on the course. This extremely well-marked course is a great early season event, and even a good first timer's race with generous cut off times. The trails are almost all single track with a small paved section used to connect the two major trails used on the course.
