The Bridgman 5k/10k is an Epic Race Timing Event--Using cutting edge bib chip timing technology

Help STOMP out Alzheimer's and participate in the stoopidest & funnerest run you'll ever do!!

5kish run through Deerfly infested woods of Grand Mere State Park. Catch deer flies with a Tred- Not Deerfly Patch & raise $$$ to help fight Alzheimer's disease.

Catch deer flies with a Tred- Not Deerfly Patch (on your hat...BRING A HAT!!!) & raise $$$ to help fight Alzheimer's disease. Although we hope your time flies with us (see what I did there?), this is not a timed event.

The winner is the STOMPER who catches the most number of deer flies. Yes, we will actually count the deer flies. Rules? There's not a lot of rules...the "Dee Berry" rule (you can't steal somebody else's patch) is the only real rule. Prizes to top 3 STOMPERS!

FYI This is year 17 of the Jack Settles Deerfly Stomp!!! (Plus a few years of informal stomping...) Over the past 16 years we have caught approximately 3500 deerflies (plus at least 1 horsefly...grrrr) AND donated over $14,000 to the Alzheimer's Association!

Alzheimer's Facts:

6.9 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's. That number is expected to grow to 13 million by 2050.

Health and long-term care costs for people living with dementia are projected to reach $360 billion in 2024 and nearly $1 trillion in 2050.

About 1 in 9 people (10.9%) age 65 and older has Alzheimer’s dementia.

1 IN 3 Seniors dies with Alzheimer's or another dementia.

It kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.

The lifetime risk for Alzheimer's at age 45 is 1 in 5 for women and 1 in 10 for men.

Alzheimer's disease was the fifth-leading cause of death among people age 65 and older in 2021.

The purpose Crazy Legs Race Series (CLRS) is to promote non-pavement/pavement races in the Northwest Indiana region through the development and management of new and existing races. At all our events you will experience fun and challenging course design in a low-key atmosphere. Races will be held in parks or areas in the Lake, Porter and Laporte counties.

The Crazy Legs Race Series welcomes and encourages participation in our events by all individuals regardless of their sexual orientation, biological sex, gender identity, or gender expression. Transgender runners may register as the gender they identify with and there is no documentation needed.

The Crazy Legs Race Series would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we host our races is the seized territory of the Miami, Shawnee, and Illinois Nations. Refugees from other nations also resided in the area we use, including the Lenape (Delaware). We honor those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.
