The event takes place on flat, paved roads in Kerkhoven, Minnesota, with water stops along the route. Participants have the option to get a T-shirt, with a reduced entry fee for opting out. Only the longer race is part of the Glacial Lakes Championship Running Series. After the races, there are activities like children’s games, a tractor pull, and a parade as part of Kerkhoven Town and Country Days. Proceeds support the Kerkhoven Park and Recreation Department. Awards are given in various age categories for men and women in both races.
