Run From The Tax Man

A medal...made of wood...aka a Woodle! All finishers in all distances will receive a Woodle!

Woodles from Ridgeway Woodworks have the added benefit of being made from reclaimed wood, meaning, these awards not only look great, but they cut down on waste! Each Woodle includes a magnet on the back. Custom racks are available for purchase from Ridgeway. If purchased prior to April 1st, they will be delivered at the first race. Don't forget to check out the magnetic time cards.

Race shirts are gender specific, dry wick and those registered noon March 29 are guaranteed a custom race shirt.  After that, shirts be available while on line supplies last. 

Everything you ever wanted to know about shirts can be found right here.  The FEMALE shirts run small!

The course distances will not be exact since it is trail running, and, as nice as the park people are, they won't let us cut down trees to make new paths. 

The course is well marked with 12X12 turn arrows, 3' tall course signs, and orange SCSE cones. It does not use the traditional trail tape or markings.

Walkers are welcome to participate in any distance! When registering, select the distance in which you would like to participate. Please check the course closure time to ensure you can finish the distance you choose before the course closes. 

Although the Walk division is a timed event, it is not a competitive event. There are no age group awards for the Walk division. Walkers will still receive a finisher woodle!

Overall Awards

Overall Male & Female runners for each distance will receive a custom award provided by our partner Ridgeway Woodworks. 

Age Group Awards

Top 3 male & female finishers in 5 year age groups will receive a custom medal. Age groups are 0-14, then every 5 years.

Finisher Woodles

All participants will receive a magnet woodle for Ridgeway Woodworks.

Miss your medal? Here is how to get it.

Kids can run the FREE Kiddo's 1K if a parent is running. They will get a bib and finisher medal, but they must be registered in order to run. Shirts are available for purchase during registration.

The Wisconsin Trail Assail Series is a cupless series!

The idea of throwing 100,000+ cups in a landfill each year doesn’t seem in line with what most runners support. This has been in the works for 2+ years, but covid interrupted its implementation. Now is the time to do it!

Don’t worry, we’re NOT doing away with aid stations. There will still be aid stations with water and sports drinks at events, just no cups! You will need to bring a reusable cup with you. We are also expanding the areas for a bag drop where you can leave a nutrition/hydration bag.

We will not be running up the tower because of safety reasons. If you would like to climb the tower (and you should), you can do so before or after the event.

Hey! We know stuff happens, which is why we recommend buying event insurance during checkout. Race insurance is provided by RegShield, a FanShield product. RegShield lends peace of mind by reimbursing the cost of the registration price should you be unable to attend an event due to several covered reasons including accident, illness, and family emergency. 

RegShield is a third-party entity. All plan-related questions should be directed to FanShield via the following channels: 
help@fanshield.com 
Phone: 1-844-849-4827 EXT. 1

On your emailed registration receipt, there will be a unique registration link, and a Facebook share that you can forward to your friends to let them know they should join you on your next adventure! For every 5 friends you get to register for the event using your unique email link or Facebook share, you'll get $20 back on your registration!
