Organiser's Description
5.5k Run Race Description:Come join us September 28th and celebrate Oktoberfest in beautiful South Haven, Michigan. This 5.5K race will cover both the North and South beaches of South Haven. 388 people registered for our first race in 2023 and we are happy to welcome everyone back for this unique race. We promise one of the most scenic race routes you have ever participated in. The race will again include the historic Dyckman Bridge as part of the fun. Although runners who contend for the win of their division will not be caught by the bridge, slower runners and walkers may be stopped as it raises up every 30 minutes to let boats in and out of the marina from Lake Michigan. Those who do get stopped will get a special award!!!!!
This is a family fun event so bring the whole family to enjoy the fun. We love dogs and other pets, but unfortunately we can't allow them to run in the race. Baby strollers are welcome as long as participants start in the back of the race with them.
Everyone will get a custom race number for the event that you can save as a keepsake.
