13th Annual-ish NK50k
Earn the (Almost) World Famous NK50k Finisher Sticker!
Join us for a point-to-point tour of the Northern Kettle Moraine Ice Age Trail!
It's time to welcome Spring to the Northern Kettle Trail Running Community ... which means it will most likely be snowing!
At 7:00 AM, we will start at the Ridge Road Trailhead, just southwest of Sunburst Ski Hill. Transportation will be provided to the start from the finish (Greenbush Group Camp), leaving at 6:00 AM.
After we're done, we'll enjoy some food and refreshments at the Group Camp Shelter.
This stop is also where Aid will be provided to the 50k runners.
Aid and access to drop bags for the 50k runners will also be provided at Mile 3.5 and at Mile 25. There is water available along the course at additional spots as well, at or near the backcountry shelters.
