Pillsbury Push

About This Event
The 5k course is on flat, paved roads in Kerkhoven, Minnesota. The 10k course is mostly paved roads with about 1.5 miles of mowed grass on the golf course. There is also a short distance of gravel road. Water stops every couple of miles.

This year, we are providing the choice of getting a T-shirt. Participants can choose to receive a T-shirt for an extra $5.00 charge. Registration costs are further reduced if you sign up during one of the promotional days.

During registration, in the "Giveaway" section of registration, you will either choose your T-shirt size, or you can select "I don't want a T-shirt" option..

Only the 10K Race is part of the Glacial Lakes Championship Running Series.

After the run, there will be children’s games and a children’s tractor pull, a flea market, firemen’s feed, kiddie rides, swimming and a parade, all part of the annual Kerkhoven Town and Country Days. Please feel free to stay and enjoy the day.
