Join Us for a Scenic Adventure & Community Wellness Race!
Let’s create healthier lifestyles together by sharing the amazing resources around us—and giving back to our community!
On Saturday, July 11th, come explore the beautiful Oconto Falls area with a fun, multi-sport challenge.
Registration, transitions, and party afterwards will be held at the West Side Beach of Oconto Falls (N. Flatley Rd)
Your race journey begins on the Oconto River paddling upstream about half a mile around a buoy before returning to the starting site. Then, hop on your bike to cruise through scenic, rolling country roads with some exciting hills. Finally, lace up for a 5K walk or run along a mix of trail and road, finishing back at the site.
TRANSITIONS ARE ALL AT THE WEST SIDE BEACH
Have your own equipment? Please bring it and use it! If not, no worries— LIMITED equipment will be available to rent/reserve. I’m working with local partners to secure bike and kayak rentals to make sure everyone can join in.
If you need specific gear or have questions about rentals, just reach out—I’m here to help!
We’re excited to offer three waves to match your style and pace:
Competitive Wave (830am launch): For those ready to race full throttle and push their limits from start to finish.
Power Boost Wave (8:40am launch): Open to athletes using e-bikes and SUPs—get that extra edge while still tackling the course with determination.
Explorer Wave (8:50am launch): Perfect for those who want to challenge themselves while enjoying the adventure of paddling, biking, and running through beautiful terrain.
Pick the wave that fits your vibe, gear up, and get ready for an unforgettable day on July 11th!
Awards & Participation:
All participants will receive a participation medal to celebrate their achievement.
Medals will also be awarded to the top three males and top three females in each age category from the COMPETITIVE WAVE ONLY:
< 20 and under - 29 | 30-39 | 40-49 | 50-59 | 60+
Post-Race Celebrations:
