About the Race for Grace
All distances start and finish on the high school track, so there is a fixed anchor to the morning no matter which option you pick. The trail route heads off-road through a cross-country-style course with real hills and open views over Richland Center. The shorter road options keep things on flatter ground, and a separate first-responder challenge on the one-mile course adds an unusual competitive element to that distance.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the Richland Center Community Center, with a backup window race morning at the track's concession stand. The high school lot handles parking. The race benefits a local cancer organization, and pledge sheets are available at the event for runners who want to raise funds beyond the entry fee.
