About the Tomahawk Pow Wow Days 5K/10K/Fun Run

The races start and finish at Veterans Memorial Park along the Wisconsin River. The 10K heads out on a river route, climbing up Kings Hill past the historic Kings Dam before turning back. The 5K takes a shorter path through school grounds and side streets before returning to the park. The mile fun run loops the same area and is open to all ages.

Packet pickup opens early on race morning under the gazebo in the park, the same spot where age group awards are collected after you finish. A local church provides refreshments in the finishing corral. There is also a patriotic costume contest with prizes for the top outfits.

Common Questions About the Tomahawk Pow Wow Days 5K/10K/Fun Run

Will I finish last at the Tomahawk Pow Wow Days 5K/10K/Fun Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 29:48, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:06:45, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Tomahawk Pow Wow Days 5K/10K/Fun Run a good first 5K?

A field of 511 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Tomahawk Pow Wow Days 5K/10K/Fun Run?

The 5K winner ran 16:32 while the median finisher took 29:48. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
