The TRAILBREAKER is Waukeshas signature running event, proudly held every year since 1993. What began as the vision of three passionate local runners has grown into a celebrated tradition that brings the community together each spring.

Originally featuring a MARATHON, HALF-MARATHON, 5K RUN, AND 2-MILE WALK, the Trailbreaker offers something for everyone from seasoned marathoners to families looking for a fun and active day out.

Since 2009, the event has been hosted by the PARK FOUNDATION OF WAUKESHA, INC [https://www.parkfoundationofwaukesha.com/]. as a fundraiser supporting the enhancement of CITY PARKS, TRAILS, RECREATION PROGRAMS, AND WAUKESHAS URBAN FOREST.

In 2023, Silver Circle Sports Events, LLC [https://runsignup.com/w/SilverCircleSportsEvents] (SCSE) partnered with the Park Foundation under a long-term agreement to manage all aspects of the Trailbreaker. This collaboration ensures the event will continue to grow while staying true to its community roots and mission.

Whether youre chasing a PR or just enjoying the route, the Trailbreaker is more than a race its a Waukesha tradition. female sign
