The clay running terrains traverse natural lakes and endless rows of trees, and the cycling event connects to the eminent Cherry Lake Road course. Held on Saturday, February 8, 2020, choose from either a duathlon, 5k or 10k and enjoy this unique race while connecting with nature and getting an extra dose of oxygen.
