About the Shaker Lakes Hike & Run
The course runs the streets around Shaker Lakes, staying close to the water and the parklands throughout. It is paved and rolls gently rather than climbing hard. Dogs on leashes are welcome, as long as they stay toward the back of the pack. Guided hikes through the parks run alongside the race, so the morning draws a wide crowd beyond just runners.
Packet pickup runs the two days before the race, first at the Nature Center's pavilion and then at a local wine shop. If you miss both, pickup is available the morning of the race. The event raises money for the Nature Center, and runners can set up personal fundraising pages during registration.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Shaker Lakes Hike & Run has been held every year since at least 2022. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
