The ONLY race around Lac La Belle!
8 Mile & Half Marathon Run 🏃♀️🏃♂️
Discover the beauty of Lac La Belle 🌊 on this unforgettable 8-Mile and Half Marathon course. Starting at the Village Green in downtown Oconomowoc 🏞, runners head north along the picturesque isthmus between Fowler Lake and Lac La Belle. The course then winds west through the charming Village of Lac La Belle 🏡, tracing the shoreline before opening into peaceful countryside roads 🌳.
On the return, the route hugs the lake’s western edge, offering sweeping water views 🌅 all the way back to Wisconsin Avenue. The final stretch is a flat, fast push to the finish at City Beach 🏖—right on the shores of Lac La Belle.
Whether you’re gearing up for your first race, locking in a training run for a big fall marathon, or just want to cruise a gorgeous course, the DoLittle won’t disappoint. This stretch of the trail is scenic, smooth, and speedy — ideal for setting a PR or just enjoying the spring vibes.

This is not just flat. It is laser-flat, lightning-fast, and fully certified, a course built to reward strong legs and smart pacing. Even better, it is a dream for spectators. Your fans and crew can cheer you on up to eight times without budging, then roll straight into the start and finish to witness the moment you make it official.

New for 2026 - Rucking!
What is rucking?
Rucking is a physical activity that involves walking or hiking with a weighted backpack (called a rucksack). The term comes from the military, where soldiers train and operate carrying heavy loads over long distances. In civilian fitness and recreation, rucking is gaining popularity as a versatile and low-impact workout.

Buena Tierra Run Club emerged from a simple revelation. After co-founder Patrick ran through Chicago's Latino Pilsen neighborhood, he knew Milwaukee needed a space where Latino runners could gather, celebrate, and reshape the health narrative in their community. Founded in November 2023, what started with seven people at a first run has grown into a movement of more than 250 runners. Now they gather regularly at Milwaukee's Zócalo Food Park, building a community bound by movement, pride, and the spirit of the Southside. Every run is free and open to all, a chance to inspire the next generation and rep Milwaukee in a way that truly speaks to you.
