Run the River 5k 

Lace up your running shoes and support the conservation of western Wisconsin's treasured waterways at the Run the River 5k Run/Walk & Kids Fun Run, presented by the Kinnickinnic River Land Trust (KRLT). This community event brings people together not only to celebrate healthy living and the outdoors, but to protect the future of the Kinnickinnic River watershed. All ages and abilities welcome! The 5k race is chip timed and awards will be given for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place for each gender across seven age divisions.

Kids Fun Run

Our Kids Fun Run encourages the next generation of conservationists to get outside, stay active, and build a connection with nature. All Kids Fun Run participants receive a participation award in recognition of their efforts and enthusiasm.

Community & Conservation Celebration

After the race, stay and connect with fellow KRLT supporters, enjoy refreshments, and learn more about how KRLT is preserving critical habitat, improving water quality, and safeguarding public access throughout the watershed.
