Course Summary

Come to Southeast Minnesota to "Storm the Park" and enjoy all that the trails at Whitewater State Park have to offer!! This is the first of the four race series, The Storm Trail Race Series. There will be a 15k course that follows and crosses the Whitewater River and offers beautiful views of the river, meadows, and surrounding bluffs. Multiple loops of this amazing course will make up the 30k. The 50k race will follow the same course with an additional 1.6k added to the 15k that will take participants all the way out to Coyote Point. This 16.6k loop will be completed 3 times for the 50k distance. The 5k course will climb you up to Chimney Rock and Inspiration Point and then back down to the Whitewater River.

Aid Stations

For the 15k and 30k there will be one Aid Station at miles 3.5, 4.5 and 8.5, which is the same AS visited multiple times, and then at the Start/Finish line. We will have orange Tailwind and all the typical Aid Station food available. For the 50k there will be the Aid Station at miles 3.5, 4.5 and 9.2, which are the same AS visited multiple times and then at the Start/Finish line. 

Race Shirts

Technical Craft shirts can be purchased during registration for $15. Shirt order deadline is Saturday, March 16th, 2024. Shirts are sold in Men's and Women's sizes. The Women's sizes tend to run a tad smaller in the torso whereas the Men's sizes are a bit wider in the torso. You will not be able to exchange sizes on race day so please be sure to double-check the size you are ordering. If you have participated in Storm the Park in the past, the shirts will be the same type of shirt that we had in 2023.
