🗺️ Course Directions

The 5K and 10K races will begin at Mackinac Straits Health System in St. Ignace at approx. 9:15. Both courses will loop out to North State Street before running N. Airport Rd past the airport and up a small hill to S. Airport Rd. 5K runners will run back toward the hospital on N. State St. and loop around the hospital/Evergreen Living Center to the finish line. 10K runners will turn right on N. State St. from S. Airport Rd. and run to Reagon St and then on to Lemotte St, which will turn into Cheeseman Rd. Runners will turn around at Cheeseman a little over a mile out and return to the hospital to complete the loop around the hospital/Evergreen to the finish line.

Courses are subject to change slightly due to upcoming construction projects.
