press release: Friday, May 24, 2019 at 7:30pm, Table Bluff Segment of the Ice Age Trail, Scheele Road, Cross Plains (Swamplovers Foundation)
Come out and support the Ice Age Trail Alliance by joining in our Headlamp Hustle! Enjoy a trail run on the beautiful Table Bluff Segment of the Ice Age Trail. It traverses restored prairie as well as steep, rocky slopes. There is approximately 200 feet of total vertical relief and several vistas from the heads of two valleys and two prominent goat prairies that offer great views of the Driftless Area. The path is dirt, mowed grass and glacial till (gravel).
Your registration includes a $15 donation to the Ice Age Trail Alliance, an event logo-ed Race Shirt from Columbia (men's sizing) for the first 100 registrants, race bib, race bag, sports drink at the aid station, a Deschutes Brewery beer in a take home pint glass and trail snacks (fruit, Honey Stingers, etc.)
Weather permitting there will be a bonfire and music going after the event. Bring a lawn chair and headlamp! Additional beer will be available for a suggested donation with all proceeds going to the IATA. Brings friends! They can help cheer you on and enjoy the after party.
The Headlamp Hustle is all about having a great time and getting some exercise with other outdoor enthusiasts and raising funds for a very important organization. This is not a timed event. There will be a clock at the beginning and end so participants can note their times if interested.
The top overall winners for each distance for men and women will receive prizes. Following the awards ceremony, we will also have a large prize drawing (at least 25 prizes) in which all participants are eligible to win! You must be present to win.
