Come experience historic Sault Sainte Marie by running or walking a 5k or 10k spanning all 7 bridges that connect the downtown island area. Then, enjoy some brews at Bird's Eye Outfitters at the official ISLAND THEMED post-race party including live entertainment. Athletic Brewing and Les Cheneaux Distillery will be in town as our brew sponsors to add to your enjoyment with their tantalizing selection of 7 brews! Proceeds benefit OUT House Consortium, a non-profit organization, to develop, maintain and promote the non-motorized trail systems in the Sault Sainte Marie area. A donation button is available for anyone who is or is not partaking in the run or walk but still want to support the improvement of our recreation trails.
The 7 Bridges 7 Brews 5k Run/Walk and 10k Run will begin along the canal trail at 7:00pm near the intersection of Portage Avenue and Peck Street. The races finish downtown at Bird's Eye Outfitters about 1 mile away. Plan accordingly as there is parking downtown and near the start area and across the street along the Ashmun Bay Boat Launch area. Any course updates due to construction in the area will be communicated prior to race day.
There will be overall awards for the 1st place gender finishers and 1st place master (40+) finishers. Overall awards can be picked up in a designated location after official results have posted. 1st place in each age group will also receive an award. Age groups are as follows: 1-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, and 70+.
Cost: $35
