Hustle For Habitat
About this race
Join us for the 3rd Annual Hustle For Habitat event that includes the Rooster Run 5K and 1 Mile Strut on Saturday, July 25, 2026.
Location: Dunvilla Trap Range, 21863 Highway 34 (MN-34), Pelican Rapids, 56572
Directions: From Lakeland General Store (22438 Old 59 Rd, Pelican Rapids, MN 56572), turn west on Highway 34. Turn right into the trap range.
The Pelican River chapter of Pheasants Forever had a blast hosting the Hustle For Habitat event in 2024 and 2025, and we are excited to host it again in 2026! The event includes two races: Rooster Run 5K and 1 Mile Strut. Pheasants Forever is known as the "The Habitat Organization" and each chapter decides how all funds raised will be used to support local habitat. The Pelican River chapter will donate the proceeds from this event to local habitat conservation projects, including the Conservation Education program which was developed to grow an informed public that appreciates and supports wildlife habitat conservation and the benefits it provides to clean water, clean air, soil protection and a healthy environment to live in.
If you ran with us in 2025 ... please note these important changes for 2026: The route now pops up to the gravel road right after the water stop, the route will have more directional signage (especially coming out of the field), and we have already reserved more porta potties! We will also have more copies of the map and schedule at registration to make sure every runner knows when and where things are happening. Note that due to the farm habitat, this is more of a "trail run" than a "road run".
If you ran with us in 2024 and 2025 ... thank you for supporting the Hustle For Habitat! The 2026 event is coming back even better than before! We hope you join us again!
