Our 2019 walking race was held on Sept 21, 2019 on the Dakota Rail Trail starting in Mayer, MN between trail mileposts 18 and 28. Weather conditions were mostly cloudy with temperatures starting at 72 in the morning and rising to 78 in the afternoon. We had a few sprinkles and several short showers with winds from the south at 8 -10 mph and gusts up to 24 mph.
The chip timing results are now available! Finish line pictures will be added later on this page as they are available. A full listing is at the bottom of the page along with several self reported times
