The final event in the series will be an 6k race on the cross country ski trails of Lake Elmo Regional Park Reserve (Lake Elmo, MN) on Saturday, Nov 11th at 10am. Vehicle passes for the day are $5 if you do not already have an annual Washington County Parks pass. The course is wide trails (grass, dirt) and has plenty of rolling terrain as a nice challenge. This race is USATF sanctioned and is the final event of the USATFMN Off-Road Run Series. Awards will be provided by our sponsor, Twin Cities Running Company. See you out there!
The course starts at the Nordic Center at the top left part of the map. Racers will begin by heading east and then counter-clockwise around the yellow loop, returning back to the starting area. They will proceed south along the green loop (again counter-clockwise) until they reach the finish at the Nordic Center.
