About the Race Course Run the Landmark is a wooded trail run that takes runners through Mille Lacs Kathio State Park, which represents a majority of the Kathio National Historic Landmark District. Run the Landmark is sanctioned by USA Track & Field. There are two race options: Dirty Dozen: This 12K trail run through the woods is characterized by demanding hills during the middle miles of the race. The trail takes runners over grass, gravel, and wooded trail terrains. Scenic Six: This 6K trail run/walk brings participants through the woods primarily on grass trails and includes some gentle hills. This route is a great introduction to trail running.
Awards Awards will be presented to the top 3 overall male and female finishers for both the Dirty Dozen and Scenic Six.
Location The race takes place at Mille Lacs Kathio State Park in Onamia, MN. The races will start and finish near the picnic area. Follow park signs to the Interpretive Center/Picnic Area.
