 MOONLIGHT MELTDOWN 5K ROAD COURSE  

​​Presented by Plus Group Wealth Advisors

​

 The Moonlight Meltdown 5k is a very fast flat road course taking you right through the streets of Belgium, highlighting a pass by our Fire Department and our FULL MOON Sponsor Plus Group Wealth Advisors. Our course is the best lit and marked night run/walk in Wisconsin, just like our snowmobile trail system!

​

SUNSET SAFARI 10K Hybrid/Crossover Trail Run!

​

  SUNSET SAFARI is a 5.0 mile road course with a 1.2 mile trail run right in the middle of the course, through the majestic Harrington Beach State Park right down the Snow Runners LTD Snowmobile Trail. It is a mowed grass path with a few rolling hills and lots of beautiful scenery! There are also some elevation changes throughout the course to make this course not only awesome, but just a little bit challenging! Sunset Safari Trail Run may have a few wet spots on the path, so please be prepared.
