Lakefront Discovery Run

THE END IS NEAR!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! Well, the Running Season end is near anyway, not so sure about the apocolypse just yet. Lets celebrate an awesome 2024 running season with your favorite season ending event.

The Lakefront Discovery Run features either a 15k, a 5k, and a FREE KIDS RUN!. Each distance can be run, walked, skipped, or hopped. There are age group awards as well as for overall winners. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THERE WILL BE AN AWARD FOR BEST COSTUME as voted on by the event volunteers (please dont attempt to bribe the volunteers. Bribe the Race Director, because at the end of the day, it's their call). THOSE IN COSTUME GET FREE BEER!! Also should be noted, THOSE NOT IN COSTUME GET FREE BEER TOO (but no ALL CAPS announcement for them, damnit).

The run begins at Veteran's Park and provides a delightful tour of Milwaukees lakefront. Candy laden aid stations line the course to fuel your run and satisfy your sweet tooth. Each runner/volunteer receives an event t-shirt (RUNNERS WHO REGISTER AFTER OCT 23RD ARE NOT GUARANTEED A SHIRT), traditional post-race snacks, spooky music (what does that even mean?), and enough candy to make a dentist cringe! We ordered great weather, but just in case, we'll have a heated tent for the post race shenanigans. Come out and celebrate a successful season of running!
