Get off the road and on the trail !
Winona's DeerFly trail race is like no other event around, and offers something for everyone.
The 5 kilometer race offers a fast course in excellent condition by trail running standards. A well marked course with no major climbs, it includes mostly wide trails, a bit of gravel road, and approximately 1 mile of single track to the finish line. This is a great course for anyone, including competitive runners, and walkers.
The 10 kilometer race is considered an adventure course. It is a course that will be well marked, but will include steep climbs, running where there is NO trail, possibly across creeks and streams, and could be muddy.
One of the only trail races in our area, the annual DeerFly 5/10K features both dirt roads and trails. You will thoroughly enjoy running the well canopied Winona Forest race course. Nothing technical on this route, the trails are designed to be relatively smooth, so you can enjoy the running experience. There are no major climbs on the 5K course, most on wide dirt path/road, ending with about 1 mile of single track. The 10K course is a bit more challenging, adventurous, and GRITTY, but doable for all ability levels. The race venue is conveniently located 6 miles off Exit 39 from I81. We support a fit and healthy society, therefore we encourage families to participate. Therefore, registration for kids 12 and under is free.
