The Kinetic Triathlon Festival features the Mid-Atlantic’s first Long Course race of the season along with an Olympic on Saturday and a Sprint on Sunday. Staged out of beautiful Lake Anna State Park, this race features a sandy beach start, a crisp (mid 60’s) freshwater swim, rolling country roads for the bike and a run course that stays completely within the State Park.  The race is amazing for so many reasons, but the best part is the park itself.  Banked stadium style seating overlooks the swim start/finish, run course and finish line.  Bring the family as the park features miles of trails, a playground, swimming beach and visitors center featuring a “gold mine”.  Outside the park you can relax post race at the Lake Anna Winery or the Coyote Hole Cider Works.  Be sure to race with friends and make some new ones at the Kinetic Triathlon Festival!

The Lake Wobegon Trail Marathon is a scenic, USATF-certified 26.2-mile race run entirely on the paved Lake Wobegon Trail, a former rail line converted into a smooth, flat path through the heart of Stearns County, Minnesota. The course starts at Holdingford High School in Holdingford, MN, and finishes at the Trail Facility in St. Joseph, MN, passing through the small towns of Albany and Avon along the way. With minimal elevation change and a gentle net downhill, the course is a Boston Marathon qualifier and a favorite among runners chasing a personal best. The route winds past farmland, lakes, and a designated nature area, offering a peaceful, traffic-free run away from city crowds. Organized and hosted by the St. Cloud River Runners, a local running club active since 1983, the event is known for its strong community support, well-stocked aid stations, and small-town charm — with local volunteers and residents cheering runners on from start to finish. Go to the official Lake Wobegon Trail Marathon website for more information

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

The Greater Richland Area Cancer Elimination Inc. (GRACE) will have the fourth annual Race for GRACE event on May 8, 2027. The event will focus on fundraising and prevention of cancer. The goal is to get people excited to get active and help in their own prevention of cancer, along with raising funds to help people currently battling cancer. There will be a ¼ mile kids run, a 1 mile fun run/walk, a 5k fun run/walk and a 3.5 mile trail run/walk. All races start and finish on the Richland Center High School track. A big part of what GRACE does is financially help people battling cancer. Optional pledge sheets will be available to help raise additional funds for GRACE. If you can't get your friends to join you in one of the race events, try to get them to support you on a pledge sheet to raise funds for GRACE. The 3.5 mile trail run/walk will be like a cross country course. We will have a well marked, off road course with challenging hills and beautiful views of Richland Center. If you are up for a challenge or just looking for something different than a normal road race, this event is for you! First Responder Challenge Our 1 mile race will have teams of first responders competing against each other in a competitive but fun atmosphere. We will have separate divisions for firefighters, police and emergency medical services. Each team will have 3 or more members from the same department. Each team will have a race bib and be chipped timed to compete against others in their division. Team members MUST finish together! Each team, regardless of size pays a $100 registration fee. Medals will be given to each first responder that is identified before April 17th and participates in the 1 mile race. Optionally, you can have a pledge sheet for your department to raise additional funds for GRACE. You can register your team by sending an email to: AllenK@walkwithgrace.com Firefighters Firefighter teams must wear turnout gear. Coat and pants are required; helmet and air tank are optional. Team members MUST finish together. Good walking/running shoes are highly recommended. Police Police teams must wear uniforms, ballistic vests and duty gear. Team members MUST finish together. Our organization helps people battling cancer in our service area. Our service area includes all of Richland County and the surrounding townships. In 2027, 58% of the money raised will go directly to cancer patients, 25% will go to cancer research, 10% to the local medical community, 5% to our preventative fund and 2% to operating costs. Registration includes a Sport-Tek t-shirt (shirt available only if registered before April 23rd) Same day registration will be available but you will not be guaranteed a t-shirt. Packet pickup can be done on May 7th from 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm at the Richland Center Community Center, 1050 N. Orange St. or the morning of the race from 6:30 am - 7:30 am at the Richland Center High School Track concession stand. Parking will be available at the Richland Center High School track.

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.
