From the Race Organizer
The Mountain Lake Road Race is one of the longest running races in the state of Minnesota! We will be holding our 53rd annual race this year. Our event has that small town charm with big city production and turnout. Our race is recognized for being well-run and organized. Known for having one of the least expensive registration fees in the state. This Run Mountain Lake event is still able to provide quality t-shirts, chip timing, awards for the overall winners, as well as for the top 3 in each race division, along with unique commemorative finisher medal for all runners, fruit, and other refreshments. The t-shirt is well designed, ultimately becoming a collectible item for many.
