Event summary

Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the Quiet Silence 50k, taking place on December 5th and 6th, 2025, in the beautiful Lake Mills, Jefferson! This exhilarating event invites runners to tackle an out-and-back course on the scenic Glacial Drumlin State Trail, starting at the Rotary Park in Lake Mills. Participants will have 8 hours to complete the full 50k distance, with a delightful turnaround point at the Western terminus in Cottage Grove, where you'll be greeted with warm food and cheering volunteers.

For those not quite ready for the full distance, a 25k option is now available, allowing you to enjoy the same stunning trail with a turnaround at approximately 8 miles. Both courses feature a mostly flat, crushed gravel surface, making them ideal for runners of all levels. With a focus on mindfulness and respect for the surrounding communities, this event promises a unique blend of challenge and camaraderie under the night sky. Join us for a memorable night of running, community, and celebration at the Quiet Silence 50k!

Organiser's Description

12/5 at 7pm, youll have 8 hours to complete this out and back 50k on the Glacial Drumlin State Trail. We will be starting at the Rotary Park in Lake Mills and turning around at the Western terminus of the Glacial Drumlin in Cottage Grove.

We are so lucky and thankful to have this all season, multi-use path here locally. We will absolutely adhere to the highest respect to everyone involved who maintains it.

Thank you!!!-

Nicole and Carri, your RDs.

Here, well host warm food, all the usual running snacks, volunteers and cheers to fill you back up and send you back on your way.
