Grab your sweetie and join us on Valentines Day for the Betsie Bay Frozen 5K!

It may be cold, but that's part of the fun! There's nothing like the thrill of running through crisp winter air, surrounded by fellow runners, with the finish line in sight. Whether you're a seasoned runner or joining for the first time, the Betsie Bay Frozen 5K is the perfect way to embrace winter and get moving.

Known for its frosty conditions and gusts off Lake Michigan-making it's true test for "crazy" winter adventurers. Despite the chilly weathers, the race is a fun and community driven event that welcomes participants of all ages and paces. Proceeds go to benefit Benzie County Youth Initiative. https://www.growbenzie.org/benzieareayouth

Awards will be given to top place overall and top three in each age category. 14 and under; 15-19; 20-24; 25-29; 30-34; 35-39; 40-44; 45-49; 50-54; 55-59; 60-64; 65-69; 70-74; 75-79; 80 and up.

All participants receive a lightweight hoodie, a commemorative bib, a finishers medal and a coupon for $2 off a StormCloud beer!

Packet pick up takes place at the American Legion in Frankfort on Friday, February 13 from 4PM until 6PM and again on race day from 8:30AM until 9:30AM. Busing to the start will be provided by Frankfort Area Schools and Benzie Bus. Buses will run from 9:10AM until 9:40AM to ensure enough time to get everyone to the start line. Participants can be dropped off at the start, using the parking lot of Furnace Street Distillery. Vehicles will not be allowed to drive to the overlook on race morning due to start line staging.

Bag drop will be available at the Legion on race morning.

Donated gifts from our community partners will randomly be given away to registered participants on race day.

The course begins and ends near the pavillion in Bellows Park. The race will be professionally timed by Aldrich Timing, with an 8:15 a.m. shotgun start.

South Shore Drive is a low-traffic, residential roadway with an enforced speed limit of25 mph. The roadway will not be closed to traffic during the race. Law enforcement will monitor speed, and a courtesy car will move continually through the race route.

Those wishing to walk or run but not be timed, can begin any time between 7 a.m. and 11 a.m., and travel any length of the route. This is family friendly event, with strollers and mobility devices welcome. Children up to age 17 may accompany parents or guardians at no charge.

Participants may park away from the race start line in Bellows park, and along non-private property on Bellows Ave., S Shore Drive E, and Thomas Road. Parking is limited, and we encourage participants to ride-share or have family members or friends provide drop-off and pickup. Please do not park with wheels encroaching any private properties.

Enjoy a time of fellowship and refreshment after your run or walk, in the Bellows Park pavillion!

All proceeds of this race support the work of Benzie Senior Resources, in their effort to help Benzie County adults 60 and older remain healthy, intellectually and socially engaged, and living independently in their own homes.
