About the Winterläufe - The Winter Race
The course heads out and back through the countryside around Frankenmuth, passing over a historic covered bridge along the way. The surroundings are quiet and open, the kind of terrain that feels genuinely wintry in the dead of winter, and the bridge crossing gives the route a distinct midpoint landmark.
Food and drink are set up at the finish. The race is organized by the local Jaycees chapter, and proceeds go toward local charities.
