Organiser's Description
Join us at Island Lake in Brighton, Michigan for a Half Marathon or 5 Mile run or ruck designed to embrace the messiest, most unpredictable conditions February has to offer. Snow? Ice? Slush? Perfect. Youll earn every inch of your WTF hoodie, medal, and bragging rights.
Worried about the cold? Dont be. The late morning start gives you time to sleep in and lets the temps rise just enoughbefore you hit the trails.
This race is for those who crave a challenge. The gnarlier the conditions, the cooler the participants. WTF is all about embracing uncertainty, chasing adventure, and leaning into whatever the trail throws your way. Our ruck division is growing fastruckers, we see you.
