Badger Trail Races

All races run along the Badger State Trail continuing onto the Jane Addams Trail between Belleville, WI and Orangeville, IL. The course is 99% rail trail and less than 1% asphalt.

We chose this race due to the unique scenic character of the course and the amazing communities that support the trail. We would like to thank Belleville, Monticello, Monroe and Orangeville for their hospitality. Please enjoy these towns, spend time and money in them and get to know them. They have a ton to offer.

Runners will be well supported on their journey with full aid stations every 4-8 miles. You will be timed from the starting line to the moment you cross the finish line.
