Get It Dunn Half Marathon & 5K

Saturday, June 10, 2023 • Menomonie, WI • Course Map

Several hundred runners cross the finish line in both races combined each year at the Get It Dunn Run 5K & Half Marathon, which takes runners on an out-and-back course along the hills and along a stretch of the paved Stokke Trail that runs along the banks of the Red Cedar River here in western Wisconsin.

The race starts and finishes in the small town of Menonomie, Wis., home to just over 16,000 residents as well as the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Stout, which runners make a quick run through in the home stretch of the race on the way to the finish line on Wilson Avenue downtown.

Runners will start the race near the southern end of the lake on Wilson Avenue. From there, runners make a sweeping, counter-clockwise-shaped loop along the rolling country roads just south of Menomonie, all around the lake.

Once they make it over the river — and the hillier portions of the race, especially between mile markers 4 through 7 — the race flattens out as the course puts runners onto the Stokke Trail, which runs along the river’s western bank.

Organizers plan to present age group awards to the top three finishers in each of the following categories: up to 20 years old, age 21 – 31, age 32 – 40, age 41 – 50, age 51 – 65, and age 66 and over.

The race’s presenting sponsor, the locally based health and wellness company Mind Over Matter Inc., will use proceeds from the race for its new Kathleen Fisher Memorial Scholarship and for care packages to be distributed to families and patients who are going through cancer diagnosis and treatment.
