Driftless Distance Night

The Driftless Distance Project is hosting an evening track meet, under the lights at Central High School's track Saturday, July, 19th!

This year, Driftless has partnered with River City Run Club to offer a limited-event, youth track meet preceding the 5k's!! Compete in one, or multiple races and stay around for some electric events through the evening!

All levels of runners are welcome whether you are just looking for a group to run a 5k with, or you’re chasing a PR. This is a very unique event and a great opportunity to come out and have a great time! Even if you're not running, we would love for you to come out and support, hope to see you there! *All proceeds from this event go to support our Driftless Distance Project and help us positively impact the sport of running!
