08/24/2007 Race Update
The race is on as scheduled! We have moved the 3 mile course on to the graveled surface because of mud but everything else is in good shape. We can still accept registrations up to race time - hope to see you there!
Returning in 2007 - Team Participation Prize
It's simple - just pick a name for
your team then get a group together - friends, family,
co-workers or a combination of all three! Be sure everyone
registers with the same team name. The
group with the most participants registered by race time will win a
prize. |

About the course:
The course is on a
scenic loop inside the Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge. The 5 and 3-mile courses
loop past wetlands and other wildlife habitat, ending close to the start line. The Kids’ Fun Runs
are out and back. The course is flat (no hills) with a level, crushed rock
surface (there may also be some hard-packed dirt).
In case of
flooding in the refuge, the race will be held on County Road X61 with parking at
the Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge headquarters parking lot. County Road
X61 is a flat, hard-surfaced road. Check this web site to see about changes to
the race course.
Port
Louisa National Wildlife Refuge is located in Louisa County, Iowa along the
Mississippi River.
