5k Run Virtual Walk

Run, walk, stroll, or dance at the E.D. Locke Public Library's 4th Annual 5K Run/Walk and Kids Dash.

There are four ways that you can participate:

Kids' Obstacle Dash @ 8:30 a.m.

Children may register for a fun obstacle run down Milwaukee St. Dash through bubbles, skip between cones, limbo, and more! Each registered participant will receive a hat and medal. Parents may join in at no additional cost.

Kids' Obstacle Dash with 1/4 Mile Run @ 8:30 a.m. (immediately after the dash-only participants)

This year we are offering a challenge for our older children participants. They can add a 1/4 mile run to their obstacle dash. We will start with a run around the library followed by a lap through our obstacle course. Each registered participant will receive a hat and medal. Parents may join in at no additional cost.

5K Run/Walk @ 9:00 a.m.

Lace up your shoes and run, walk, or dance your way through the course. Each participant will receive a knitted beanie, bib, professional timing, and more. Strollers and dogs are allowed.

Virtual 5K Run/Walk

Run or walk at your own time by choosing our virtual option. You will be able to pick up your knitted beanie and bib during packet pick up or after the event at the library.

All proceeds from the event support the programming at the E.D. Locke Public Library.

    The Whitewater Trail Challenge follows the Ice Age Trail -- a 1,200 mile footpath that traverses Wisconsin and is designed to showcase the lasting impact of ice age glaciers on the landscape of the state. One of only eleven National Scenic Trails, it is an iconic route covering vast and diverse natural areas, and is a longstanding magnet for hikers and runners. The trails vary from smooth and well-maintained to extremely technical, and because the route is a patchwork of connected segments, the footing can change quickly! The Spartan Whitewater trail challenge course covers a small but scenic portion of the trail – an out and back from Rice Lake near the town of Whitewater – but with this taste of what the Ice Age Trail has to offer our racers will be tempted to keep exploring!
