Here at FrontRunner, our event season never really ends.  Instead, we usually think about our Winter season and our Summer season.

Our Summer season starts this weekend with the Cemstone Run for Others 5K/10K in Mahtomedi.  We have assisted with the Cemstone Run for Others since the original race back a dozen years or so – Timing/results, equipment, shirts and medals – The S. Andrew’s Running Club was always the organizing crew.  This year, FrontRunner will play a bigger role, while still having assistance from the running club.  The race starts and finishes at St. Andrew’s Lutheran Church.  It is a 9:00a.m starts both both events.  Check here for additional information on Cemstone Run for Others.

On April 25th, FrontRunner puts on the Chippewa 50K Ultra Trail Run and the 10K Trail Run near New Auburn, Wisconsin, on the Ice Age Trail.  The 50K is always a Spring favorite for the trail running community.  The 10K is race number 1 for the Dirty 30 Trail Running Series.  The Ice Age Trail offers some of the most beautiful single track running in the Midwest.  The event starts and finishes at the Moraine Chippewa Interpretive Center.  The 50K starts at 8:00 a.m. and the 10K starts at 9:00 a.m.  Check here for additional information on Chippewa

This is just the start.  We have an incredible summer put together for you – something for everyone.  Check out our complete schedule here.
