THE COURSES:

All of our course utilize the awesome, packed fat bike trails in Duluth.  The trail surfaces, when conditions are good, are tremendous for trail running.  Weather conditions can affect trail surfaces and runners should be prepared for any type of condition on race day from packed, snow covered, icy, soft, and possibly really cold!  Come prepared for any condition and you'll have fun!  Of course, we'll be hoping for perfect conditions on race day, but in winter, you have to be prepared for anything.

​
