You will find the trail to be about 80% wooded terrain; with the rest meandering through gentle prairie or marsh areas. Part of the course will be a roller coaster of hills, with small rocks and roots scattered about. Other sections will be gently rolling with relatively smooth running surfaces. The pine sections give you that soft bed of pine needles that so many of us love to run on. Though our hills are not especially long or steep, they can take a tremendous toll on you if you attempt to run them. They are many and scattered throughout the course. "Silent Killers" is what one local runner calls them.

Join us Wednesday nights for different bike rides throughout Dane County. Short to long options, varying terrain. Free. Visit WNBR.ORG for specific details and the ride schedule.

10k, 5k, kids's run/walk at the Henry Vilas Zoo, Madison, WI.

The riverside trails and wooded single tracks are the perfect backdrop for the Pike River Trail Run & Walk. This 3.5-mile walk or run and 6.5 mile run is the best way to embrace the changing of seasons and enjoy fall in Wisconsin at its peak. The event will start like a cross country meet and then you will experience single track, rocks, roots, water, and hills! The course will take you through some unexpected turns, but the excitement will be the beauty of the nature that surrounds you. This event is perfect for all fitness levels and is dog-friendly for those not interested in participating in the CaniCross Event.
