Event
Details
Hosted by the local Boys and Girls Club of Barron County and sponsored
by the Luther Midelfort Northland Mayo Health System, the Tater Trot
Half Marathon & 5K celebrates its third annual running in the
fall of 2008, taking runners on a challenging out-and-back loop course
that starts and finishes at Rice Lake's Moon lake Soccer Fields at the
intersection of South Street and Kern Avenue. The half-marathon race
takes runners through the rolling, scenic countryside just south of
town, while the 5K race follows a faster and flatter course with views
of the lake from which the town gets its name. Both races start at
10:00 AM, and are followed by post-race festivities with lots of
activities for kids.
Race
