About the Catfish Days 5k & 10K Run
The course follows the Mississippi River and turns into Perrot State Park, so the scenery carries you through most of the effort. It is an open course, meaning traffic is still moving, and runners are expected to yield and stay to the left except when passing. Both distance options share the same general out-and-back shape, with water at the turnaround.
Packet pickup is available the evening before at The Lane on Main on Main Street, or on race morning at the start area before the gun goes off. Same-day registration closes well before the start. Water and a light snack are out at the finish line. Cash only for day-of registration.
